For fast and effective sore-throat relief, nothing beats an old-fashioned saltwater gargle. Salt acts as a mild antiseptic, and also draws water out of mucous membranes in the throat, which helps to clear phlegm. Dissolve a half-teaspoon salt in a glass of warm water, gargle and spit out. Repeat up to four times a day.

It does =)
And good luck with that :/
Also try drinking some straight lemon juice. It's sour/gross, but it will help.
Bleh gross I'll try it before bed
I have neo citran or whatever. It's disgusting
Depends on what you are dealing with. A simple sore throat you can gargle salt water but it will take more than one glass to make it feel better. The irritation does not just go away so you can do the salt water but gargle a few glasses spread out over some time. However look at your throat in the mirror and see if it has white blobs all over...if so you likely have strep throat and gargling salt water will do nothing to rid the bacteria and you will need to get some prescription antibiotics.
Told youuuuuuuuuuu ;D
