for really bad bad colds/flu - the above and theraflu nighttime at night, daytime for day.

had that stupid bird flu last winter, home alone! It makes you cough non stop for about 4 weeks! I thought I broke ribs coughing so much. Anyway, remembered what my grandmother/ mom did when we were small -

1 Tbl each: butter, whiskey (any), lemon, honey. Heat it all to melted in a pot coat a spoon and lick it hot. It kept me from coughing for 15 -20 min straight at a time. sharet
