Cold medicine can be taken in appropriate quantities. German hospitals won't treat minor colds. If you have a cold, going to the clinic is a waste of time. They will just tell you to go home and drink plenty of water, and they won't give you any medicine or injections. Pay attention not to bring a lot of cold medicine or cough syrup containing ephedrine, which is a drug trafficking suspect and can be arrested.
