I am feeling a little congested and want to get some cough drops but worried and unsure what kind to get. There are so many things we can't have, and I am in remission right now and don't want to get something that will cause me pain. :hmm:

I don't know of a a cough drop but you can use vicks on your throat...there are some other ideas that may help you here. Hope you feel better soon.

IC friendly treatment for colds: Breathe Right Nasal Strips
Breathe Right Vapor Shot cup (you drop a tablet in & inhale the vapors)
Vicks VapoRub, tons of rest, Alavert Allergy, Afrin No Drip Severe Congestion spray, Hot pear juice with honey (soothes cough),
Ricola regular herb drops (no colorants, use sparingly),
Lots of hot showers, Homemade chicken soup,
Johnson's baby vapor bath (has eucalyptus & menthol in it),
Migraine Ice patches to stick on forehead for headache
warm compresses on forehead & cheeks,
