There is a Coricidin HBP that is pretty decent, and I've had good results with Halls and Ricola sugar-free cough drops - the Ricola herbal drops are particularly soothing for coughs. Chamomile tea is bland but also very good with coughs. Some allergy-relief tablets have only anti-histamines and will help clear your head. I can't take the ones with the decongenstants generally (blood pressure), but some docs will allow it for a day or two.
