The other day I decided I would try Sudafed PE, they do not use any fake sugars to sweeten it. This is attractive to me because of my fake sugar allergies. I have to be careful. The first time I used Sudafed was as a kid with allergies it worked than pretty well. I have tried other thing as an adult, because after a while it got less effective for me. It’s been a long time since I used them, and I decided I would try again.
Sudafed for me works well if it a minor cold or upper resp cold. But once it gets beyond that it doesn’t work enough because the cough expectorant isn’t strong enough. There is no real taste to it which I prefer I rather have a icky tasting med with out sweetness. The main problem with Sudafed is that you have to take it every 4 hours which is a pain to remember. Over all it works if your congestion is very mild, I think there allergy meds might be better then the cold/flue meds. One thing that they don’t help with is acne treatments.
