    Lots of rest, plenty of fluids (if you've got a sore throat, I suggest either orange juice or caffeine free Coke to help keep you hydrated) and eat well to boost your immune system. You can take something like Airborne, but I don't find that really helps if you're not in the very beginning stages of a cold. OTC cold remedies are good if the cold hits and you still have to function. Afrin helps a stuffy nose at night to help you sleep but be sure to follow the directions in terms of use and don't use it longer than recommended. Good luck!
