Sorry this question wasn't answered a couple of days ago for you.
If you have a sore throat and a headache you could try taking acetaminophen, or if you wanted something a little more effective for your sore throat, an anti inflammatory drug such as ibuprofen. You could suck on a sore throat lozenge as well. None of these medicines contain a decongestant and nor will they make you drowsy. They are safe to take along with phentermine. For more expert advice talk with your pharmacist.
