Hi everyone,


I got dx with LD about 1 month ago, and am currently on tx.

I woke up Friday with a sore throat and it has developed into a head cold.

I want to take some cold medicine, but I was afraid it might interfere with my treatment or affect the keets.

I am currently taking zithromax 250mg BID.


Can I take some cold medicine. I need some relief badly.

Thanks for the help.

I have taken Benadryl with my meds ... it helps with the runny nose. I'd recommend talking to your pharmacist about interactions.

It shouldn't be a problem!! You could also take olive leaf extract as a natural immune booster.

Can you find olive leaf extract at health food stores?
