Milkshaking a human gets rid of a cold, True or False??
A "z pack" won't do anything for a cold. A "z pack" is an antibiotic. Antibiotics only work on bacterial infections. A cold is not a bacterial infection. A cold is a virus.

"Z packs" work well on bacterial sinus infections and bacterial throat infections such as strep and staph.
