Chicken soup, lots of water and juice, rest. The common cold will just run its course in a few days.

If he's congested, you can use saline nasal drops. I have thyroid disease and can't take cold medications containing decongestants.

As Mary Mary said, there are ways to survive a cold w/out medication.

as far as I know....cold pills will not test him positive.

Drug tests test for amphetamines. In order for a pill to test positive for amphetimine..it would have to broke down.

I could be wrong......But I don't think I am.

A cold ??????
Gatorade, or pedialyte.
Some chicken soup.

His blankee, and a pillow, and straight to bed !

and YOU know how much I love flowers and such .
Okay here's where this arrogant *** is coming from.
If I was set for random UA, I wouldn't want to risk the chance of any positive results.

One, because a Judge will see a positive (hot) UA, and that could be an instant remand (jail ) before full analysis could even be fought about.

Well I can tell you I know this list is wrong. I have taken some of those on that list with in three days when I took my drug test for CPS. They did not ask what I had taken but it came back Clean as a whistle. I have a friend that works in a lab and she said that they test for certain chemicals in the drugs. Ask a doctor they will tell you the same. Now if you take to much of one thing and abuse them then maybe yes you will but then I guess you kind of asked for what you got because you took more.

What do you mean?
"I can tell you I know this list is wrong."
What list?

It would be rather risky to take cold medication if the judge and persecutors, uh, excuse me, prosecutors are hot-shot types, trying to get more convictions.

Re: Cold pills that wont test positive on drug test?
erm...

I really don't know the name of the chemicals in them these days but it's reached the point there are a number of cold medications on the market that do *not* contain psuedoephdrine as an ingredient.

That's all you have to watch out for (to my knowledge)... so if you go to a local pharmacy just read the backs of the boxes... and pick something up that has no psuedoephedrine in it.

And yes.. pseudo will make you get a false positive for *some* tests. I know they told me not to take anything with it in them while I was on probation.
