Mito safe cold medicine

[Guest guest]

Does anyone have any good experience with any cold medicine? Grace has a

nasty head cold. I have been giving her Benedryl since it is the only drug

I have been told is somewhat safe. Problem is that it makes her irritable,

even more than what the cold alone was doing. She also has liver disease so

many of the common medicines are off limits. (Even Benedryl is not great,

but the allergist said it was O.K. for a short time.)

Thanks for any advice.

We use Dye free Motrin Cold.

I would definitely ask her allergist, pharmacist or specialist first though

I use sudafed as it only contains a nasal decongestant and does not have antihistimine in it which is a drying agent. It is thought to be ok for women when pregnant also. Also just plain saline nasal drops is good also.
