DayQuil and NyQuil (off brand is fine and cheaper!) and tea with honey helps me a lot. clementines or oranges for vitamin c. do not drink alcohol or caffeine on DayQuil/nyquil. I found that out the hard way

Zinc is really good. I take zycam which are like zinc rapidmelts and help to shorten/end colds

also this might feel so counterintuitive but going to the gym and getting moving a little. not a ton and still make sure to rest and SLEEP AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, but a little gym action really helps me
