Only when I can't stand the symptoms. As in, if I'm coughing a little, no biggie, I'll drink a glass of juice or maybe a vitamin C tablet to boost immune system. If I begin to get a fever or something, then yeah, I take some medicine.
I haven't found a cold medication that gets rid of the symptoms, so instead of feeling crappy from the cold, and groggy from the meds, I don't take any. I do take ibuprofin for head aches and muscle aches though.
The last thing I've taken is Ibprofen (sp?). I rarely ever get sick but I do get headaches a lot. If the headache is really serious, I'll pop some Ibprofen.
