About CCC Treatment Options
360 Degree Pharmacy is registered with the Pharmaceutical Council of Nigeria, Association of Community Pharmacy of Nigeria and the Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria.
The common cold is a viral infection that affects the nose and throat. It is often accompanied by coughing, sneezing, and a runny nose. Though usually mild, it can cause discomfort and disrupt daily activities.
The common cold is caused by viruses (such as rhinoviruses) that spread through the air, close contact, or contaminated surfaces. It is more common in cold weather or during seasonal changes.
Common triggers and risk factors include:
- Exposure to cold viruses
- Weakened immune system
- Sudden weather changes
- Close contact with infected individuals
- Touching eyes, nose, or mouth with unwashed hands
Some of the associated symptoms include:
- Sneezing and a runny or blocked nose
- Dry or chesty cough
- Sore throat
- Mild headache or body aches
- Low-grade fever (especially in children)
- Tiredness or irritability
Treatment focuses on easing symptoms and supporting the body’s natural recovery. Options may include:
- Decongestants and antihistamines: Help clear a blocked nose and reduce sneezing
- Cough syrups (dry or expectorant types): Soothe throat and help clear mucus
- Fever reducers and pain relievers: For discomfort and mild fever
- Hydration and rest: Important for faster recovery
- Steam inhalation and warm fluids: Help soothe the throat and open nasal passages
