Yes I’ve had the sniffles this week and it’s making me a little miserable, but I’ve found a couple of things I hope will ease the pain. Tons of pharmacies around Saigon sell Plussz. It dissolves quickly in a glass of water, tastes pretty okay, and claims to have vitamin C and zinc. And I found Echinacea tablets at GNC. They’re not cheap, but I try to minimise the amount of serious pharmaceuticals I take, so I’m willing to pay the extra for these in the hope that they’ll keep my cold from becoming too severe or lasting too long.
