Hey guys, I'm coming down with a cold and I'm pretty sure its not from the sust because EVERYONE around me has been really sick lately with colds, flu, and everything else. I'm fighting it off now with 1g of vitamin C per day, lots of fluids and other vitamins/minerals, but might not be enough. Is it safe to take cold/flu medicine while on sust/deca? Thanks.     | ||

you probably want to avoid medicines with decongestants in them..they contain ephedrine and not a great idea to take while on an androgen..at least in my opinion.. also bump up your C to 3g per day [This message has been edited by X-Man (edited January 05, 2001).] | ||

Up the vitamin C to 3 grams and space the dosages out. The body excretes excess vitamin c. Also take zinc. Remember that analgesics such as acetaminophen (tylenol)are rough on the liver so take your milk thistle. Mike ------------------ | ||

Wait until you are feeling better. Unless you are up working out while you are ill. lots of rest and take lots of C |
