Manufacturers are introducing products that not only provide relief from cold and cough symptoms but also address other related issues such as nasal congestion, sore throat, and headache. This trend is driven by the desire for convenience and cost-effectiveness, as consumers prefer to purchase a single product that can address multiple symptoms.
