The nose drops didn't work for me either, but then I was so
overconfident I wouldn't get the cold (my husband brought it home) that
I likely did not start nearly soon enough. In addition, until the thing
had really settled in and I began to wonder why I caught it, I didn't
realize how much I had slacked off misting my eyes and hands, nor how
much I had let my diet deteriorate, nor realize I had also slacked off
most of my supplements.
I think the bottom line for me is I either have to stop the "bugs"
before they set up housekeeping, or jump on them at the very first sign,
and I probably did neither. I was, at the time taking a pint or more of
oral CS daily for other purposes, and I guess I expected that to take up
the slack, but for me it didn't. Everything in my prior health history
(I'm 58), and history with URI infections says I am extremely vulnerable
to them.
During the previous two years of never catching a cold, no matter how
closely exposed, I did feel one coming on once or twice, and immediatly
did the peroxide in the ears thing, and upped the frequency of misting
and CS nose drops. Didn't do that, either. Sigh. Perhaps I was
influenced by folks who believe CS use strengthens the immune system,
but the whole experience proved to me I have the same old immune system
as I did before I ever heard of CS.

A variable of cold treatment is -- how soon do you know you've got one?
I may mist eyes with CS, and rinse hands with CS too as a preventive
after being out with people.
With the first tickle in the back of the nose or throat, I use my
trusty nebulizer.
I inhale 5 deep breaths of the mist by mouth (NOT with my mouth around
the mouthpiece) then breathe in ten breaths of the mist through the
nostrils, moistening all crevices.
I've done this one time this past year. No colds. I'm 69.
Once, when I had an obvious cold, I used 4 nosedrops of 5 ppm CS in
each nostril EVERY 10 MINUTES
for 1 hour. Cold gave up instantly.
