Hot tea, with lemon and a little honey, is great for sore throats, and can help keep you hydrated. Definitely worth a trip to the store if you're out. A nice hot shower with the door closed so that the steam builds up also helps a lot. If you're really stuffed up, a Neti Pot can help, too.
I love pseudoephedrine when I have a cold. I love being able to stay home with a big box of extra-soft kleenex even better, but that's just not doable in the modern world.
Now go take your buffered analgesic and take a nice hot shower.
