Can people with sickle cell take cold medicine?


I wonder if someone (especially kids) with sickle cell disease be given cold or flu medicine? My child have the disease and have a cold. I want to give her cold medicine but scared it might affect the medicine she takes already.

I would assume she can, just check with the pharmacy and they will be able to tell you.
