Yes please. My allergies have been acting up again and I might even be coming down with a little cold. Could you point me in the direction the cold and allergy medication?
好的。我的过敏症又犯了，甚至可能有点感冒。你能告诉我感冒药和过敏药在哪里吗？
Absolutely, here are a few over the counter allergy medications right here. What strength are you looking for?
没问题，这里有一些非处方过敏药。你在找哪种药力的呢？
I feel like I’m dying. Give me the extra strength stuff please. I feel miserable.
我感觉我快难受死了。请给我药力特别强的。我太难受了。
Here you are. You mentioned you have some head cold symptoms as well? Are you looking for some pills to take or are you looking for an over the counter cough syrup?
给你。你提到你也有一些感冒的症状？你是在找药片还是非处方的止咳糖浆？
Oh actually, the cough syrup is for my son. He is fighting a head cold at the moment . Does this syrup help fight headaches too?

Grammar语法
"Should" to express that something is likely.
I get lots of questions about "should" because it has so many different meanings. For example, it can be used to express a suggestion, like "You should go home and rest" or "maybe you should go to the doctor". But, it can also be used to express that something is likely. And that's how it's used in today's dialogue. When the customer asks the employee if the cough syrup will work for his son's headaches, the employee says, "it should". In other words, she thinks that it will likely work, but she's totally sure.
我收到了很多有关“应该”这个单词的问题，因为它有很多不同的含义。例如，可以用should来表达建议，如“你应该回家休息”或“也许你应该去看医生”。但是，它也可以用来表达某事很可能，这就是在今天对话中的用法。当顾客问店员这种止咳糖浆对他儿子的头痛是否有效时，店员说：“应该有效。”换句话说，她认为可能会起作用，而且是她比较确定的可能性。
As a result, you'll often hear "should" when people are making a guess or expressing an expectation. For example, your doctor might say, "If you take this medicine, you should feel better in a few days." Or, "Use this ice pack. It should help with the pain."
因此，当人们猜测或表达期望时，你会经常听到“should”。例如，你的医生可能会说：“如果你吃了这种药，几天后你就会感觉好多了。”或者，“用这个冰袋，应该能缓解疼痛。”
