Lots of hot chicken soup and drink more warm water than cold (so the throat doesn't become numb and become susceptible to the onset of sore throat). Try to lie face down while your feet are raised a feet or so. The position is supposed to help the mucus be coaxed out by gravity. I know it's hokey, but when I am congested, the position helps me to expectorate the damn pesky mucus after I have slept.
I have read that as much as possible, don't depend too much on medications. Let the body repair itself its own way. Using medication doesn't help the body become more resistant to disease.
