8 Essential Cold and Flu Items for Fall

We're well into fall, and many of you reading this may have already felt the season's impact on your health. The days are getting colder and seasonal allergies are high, causing no end to sneezing and congestion. Colds have already been running rampant, and as winter approaches the flu won't be far behind. While you're enjoying the crisp fall air and changing leaves, your immune system stands on guard. Autumn can bring all sorts of complications, so prepare yourself for any sickness that can come your way with this list of Cold and Flu items!

1. Ear Loop Face Masks

These surgical face masks by Dynarex are a convenient barrier against the spread of germs during cold and flu season. Their connected ear loop fasteners are made of soft elastic for both adjustable comfort and a tight fit. Disposable and easy to wear in crowded conditions, they're an inexpensive and safe option for public transportation, workplaces, or anywhere illness might be spread. Latex-free and with a glass-free filter, these masks are the reliable way to avoid respiratory infections.

2. Molded Blue Face Masks

Looking for absolute protection from airborne pathogens? These Dynarex molded blue face masks are shaped to fit your face's contours, and feature an adjustable aluminum nose piece and flared, soft edges to guarantee a snug yet comfortable fit. They feature a molded, cone-shaped design and are made of cool, soft materials to ensure superior comfort all day. If you work or travel in close, crowded quarters, these fluid resistant, glass-free, filtered masks are the optimal choice to stay safe from respiratory infection.

3. Sani-Cloth Plus Germicidal Disposable Wipes

Protecting yourself from airborne pathogens is only half the battle. Disinfect your hard surfaces with these hospital-grade, germicidal, disposable wipes! These alcohol-based wipes are made of a strong, diamond-embossed construction, and while they're powerful enough to kill germs in a medical facility, they're safe to use even on children's toys. Sani-Cloth Plus Wipes are effective against multiple microorganisms, both bacterial and viral, including many common and contagious respiratory viruses. Protect your home from the flu with these sanitizing wipes!

4. Airborne Duel Action Beta-Immune System Booster

Avoiding germs is important, but keeping yourself healthy enough to be ready for them is crucial. You can't evade or disinfect every single microorganism, but you can make your body strong enough to fight them off. Proper exercise, rest, and a healthy diet will ensure the effective functioning of your body, but during cold and flu season, why not give your immune system some help? Airborne Duel Action Tablets are packed with Vitamins A, C, and E, vital to maintaining cellular function and growth, as well as Beta-immune booster (yeast fermentate), which supports immune system functioning. Boost your immune system and be ready to fight off any sickness you encounter!

5. Sudafed PE Congestion Maximum Strength

Even if you've managed to avoid catching a cold or flu, you may be dealing with some of fall's strongest allergens, like ragweed or mold. The congestion can be unbearable when you're just trying to get on with your workday. Sudafed PE relieves nasal congestion and reduces sinus pressure no matter if you're suffering from allergies, hay fever, or even the common cold! This over-the-counter, non-drowsy formula ensures you'll be ready to handle whatever the fall has in store.

6. Quality Choice Fluticasone Propionate Nasal Spray

Seasonal allergies are never convenient, but as the weather gets colder they seem to worsen. Pollen, one of the most common allergies, is particularly heavy in the air during the fall. How many times have you tried to enjoy a relaxing fall day, only to find your eyes irritated and your nose so stuffed and swollen you can't breathe through it? Fluticasone Nasal Spray is here to help! Widely known as Flonase, this corticosteroid spray can provide relief for up to 24 hours. Just one or two sprays in each nostril reduce swelling and inflammation in the nose, relieving itchy, runny, and stuffy nose, as well as sneezing and eye irritation.

7. Vicks DayQuil Cold and Flu Medicine

Regardless of the precautions you take, sometimes illness catches up with you. But even when getting sick can't be avoided, stepping away from the responsibilities of your daily life seems impossible. You need the strength to be back on your feet as soon as possible. DayQuil Cold & Flu LiquiCaps are exactly what you need. Its multi-symptom, non-drowsy formula is designed for quick relief from most common cold and flu symptoms: nasal congestion, cough, fever, sore throat, headaches, and other minor aches and pains. DayQuil Cold & Flu will give you the power to get through your busy day!

8. Boiron ColdCalm Quick Dissolving Cold Relief Tablets

The trouble with many cold and flu products is that they often have poor interactions with other medications. Depending on what prescriptions you have, you may find yourself prevented from taking an entire class of drug, even ones as wide-ranging as decongestants or antihistamines. If you need relief from cold symptoms but can't take many traditional over-the-counter medications, consider ColdCalm Quick Dissolving Cold Relief Tablets!  This all-natural, homeopathic medicine has no known negative interactions with any drugs. And as a non-drowsy medicine, it relieves common cold symptoms while leaving you with enough energy to enjoy the day!
