CH, colds, and cough syrup

6 mg of melatonin before bedtime had been keeping me pain-free since shortly after the onset of this cycle last October.
Friday, I came down with a medium-wretched cold (fever and coughing, but no chest congestion).
I have twice taken Robitussin to help with the cough, and I have twice now had night time ha's according to the usual schedule, every 90-120 minutes after going to bed.
Has anyone else noticed a correlation between colds and headaches, or headaches and Robitussin (dextromethorphan)?
Perhaps some things are obvious(?), such as sinus irritation and dehydration--but the cough medicine thing's a surprise.

Sinus infection and coughing too hard are triggers for me. Hope you get over both soon!

Hi, I to have a cold flu I suffered thru it with some extra ha's as well. I find any kind of cold med seems to make it worse. Some have alcohol in them and that can be enough to trigger a ha.
