When a slight scratchy throat turns into an all-night cough fest and your temperature rises well beyond its normal degree, you are either coming down with a cold or flu or very unfortunate for you, you already have one. Catching a cold or flu early is best because taking medicine as soon as you are feeling ill will help knock the virus out of your system. Just as your common cold and flu come with a variety of symptoms, there are just as many, if not more, cold and flu meds you can purchase to help you feel better.
