At the very first sign of cold, take 1/3 tube of Anas barbariae (sold under various brand names, including Oscillacoccinum), as directed on the product label, three times daily for one day. Then, during the acute phase of the cold, take one dose of one of the symptom-specific homeopathic remedies below three or four times daily for three days. If there is no improvement at all after three doses of remedy, it is unlikely that it will do anything more. Switch to another that matches your symptoms and temperament. If you feel better before three days have passed, stop taking the remedy.
If you have a very runny nose and a great deal of irritating, watery nasal secretions that cause inflammation, as well as teary (but not burning) eyes and a lot of sneezing, take Allium cepa 12x or 6c. This is homeopathic red onion. It is recommended if you cold make you feel even worse than you do when you are chopping a strong onion.
If you feel chilly, restless, and weak, take Arsenicum album 30x or 9c. This remedy is for the individual who, paradoxically, feels worse in cold room but wants something cold to drink. You probably have a red nose and runny nasal secretions that burn the nose and upper lip. When you are ill, resting in bed with books, magazines, and a television is ideal. You generally want to be left alone, but like a bit of attention every once in a while.
If your eyes are the main focus of the cold, take Euphrasia 12x. This is for symptoms that are the opposite of those calling for Allium cepa. The nose runs a lot, especially in the morning, but without irritation. You complain of burning eyes and stinging tears, wink frequently, and wipe and rub your eyes. You also yawn a lot and prefer to be inside, away from sunlight and bright lights.
Eupatorium 12x or 6c is helpful for a severe aching deep in the bones and a feeling of being sore all over.
If you have heavy, droopy eyes; feel weak and tired, with aches and chills up and down your back; and want to be alone, take Gelsemium 30x or 9c.
If the cold is accompanied by a sore throat that resists treatment, take Mercurius solubilis 12x or 6c three times daily until the symptoms are resolved.
If you have a stuffy nose and thick yellow discharge, take Pulsatilla 30x or 9c. You feel worse at night, prefer to be outdoors, and want comfort and attention.
