Download Free sampleOver-the-counter (OTC) drugs are medicines sold directly to a consumer without a requirement for a prescription from a healthcare professional, as opposed to prescription drugs, which may be supplied only to consumers possessing a valid prescription. The drugs for the treatment of cold and cough acts on the receptors to which the virus causing the infection gets attached to, by antagonizing the action of the receptors and killing the viral infection, thereby reducing congestion by lysing the mucus and dilating the bronchioles constricted by the mucus deposition. Cold weather is not directly associated with common cold, but the virus which causes common cold, called rhinovirus, is responsible for all cold related illnesses. Once the virus is inhaled, it attaches to the cells in nasal passages.
