Zicam Cold Remedy Adult Swab

Well, first hubby came home with chills, than he had 102 fever with aspirin on board and took to his bed, for days. He was coughing quite a bit and in general, felt awful. He sent me out for Zicam Cold Remedy.

The directions tell you to take this every 4 hours. You snap open the tube's cap, insert the swab into your nostril and hold it closed for 3 seconds. Redip the swab and repeat on the other nostril.

I feel for congestion you need to prop up your head at night. You can also use Breath Right strips which work fabulously for adult and children. My husband is at the tail end of a bout with flu and took Nyquil. He actually had hallucinations. I've just begun to feel symptomatic that's why I ran out and got Zicam.

We all know about germs and there's just no avoiding the. They are on hand rails, telephones, door knobs, computers, grocery carts, counter tops, the list goes on and worst of all they are usually spread through hand to hand contact. If you're around someone who is ill, wash your hands frequently and avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. You can also keep some Purell around. I am not a germ o phobe but under the circumstances I've been exercising caution.

There had been some rumors about Zicam affecting your taste buds but according to the research I did they ended up just blaming it on the cold itself. When you're stuffy you don't smell and smell is what helps you taste.
