[Note: I tried, but I couldn't find posts about this already, and also not sure my post belongs here]
OK, foks, I'm prone to chest infections in China, and I cant' stand them. last year I did some research on boosting my immunity, and came up with a drink to boost my immune system. It worked miracles (I only got sick once and it was after giving myself alcohol poisoning ). But recently I slacked off of it and an opportunistic infection has invaded the sanctity of my respiratory tract.
I'm looking for an over the counter medicine that will alleviate symptoms, and that REALLY works. I imagine some have had the same problems and tried different medicines, mostly to no avail, but finally, I'm hoping, happened on one or two that do the trick.
If you could post the name in Chinese, or pin yin (preferably with tones), or a link or a pic, t'would be helpful.
[Incidentally, the preventative immunity booster drink is ginger/lemon, and optional honey, garlic, tea. Should be strong. Great to bring to class when the throat isn't up to snuff].
