I guess different things effect different people...differently!! When I worked at our local elementary school, the teachers swore by Zicam spray. And none of them had any strange side effects. I have to tell you....the guys at my DH's work told him to get some for his recent "cold"...I bought some for him and the first time he used it, he said that a few hours later, he was already feeling better. He used it for a few times and he said it was like a miracle in a bottle!! An all natural nose spray that WORKS (another great tip from my friend) is GrapeFruit Seed Extract nose spray (GSE)....you can find it at health food stores!

I have to agree with this. When I start my coughing I get Hycodan from the doctor right away. The coughing hurts so much and when you have a stuffy head, it is brutal. It is not good to take antibiotics if it is viral, it won't really work and then you are building up a resistance to that particular antibiotic. And if or when you get a bacterial infection, it may not work. Stay away from little kids with colds. I am playing "Give back" with one of my students and have been home sick for 3 days. I hope you feel better soon.

| Hey, Jenn 218, I am glad that you know of people that have only had good luck with Zicam spray. But tell that to the 300 plus people that permanentely lost their taste/smell from using this product. They won the class action law suit against this company and there are more to come. Too bad its still on the market. |

| The kind I used is Zicam no-drip liquid nasal gel. Cold Remedy. It comes in a spray pump bottle. I didnt sniff/snort it up either. Just used it as directed. It started burning like a SOB!! If I would have known about even a tiny chance that this could happen, I would have never used this product. But, there were no such warnings written anywhere on the box or directions. But, like I said, it must effect people differently. |

I think with any man-made drug that we consume, there are always negative side effects.........some people may not ever be effected by them, and a select few, may be. My nurse even recommended Ziacam and no problems yet. We all three have used it and it has never burned. The GrapeFruit Seed Extract spray that you can buy, which is all natural, they say it burns!!!
