OTC meds question

I have a cold and should have thought to call Dr. office before the weekend. Seems I only need a Dr. on the weekends. Anyway, I went to Wal-Mart to buy some cough and cold medicine. My question is are we able to take any OTC meds besides the anti-inflammatory meds? And if so, do we take normal doses?

    I didn't think there'd be any issue with taking OTC cough and cold meds....I went to my doc on Friday coz I wasn't well (I hate that I have to go for the certificate!!) anyway, he told me to take cold and flu tabs. He knows about the band.

    I just got the ones that are in capsule form! THey went down a treat and I'm feeling much better.
