Pros: Decent flavor, numbs and cools for a short while, some pain relief Cons: Very short term relief, not strong enough for anything but minor throat irritation
I have a sore throat right now as I type this again. And my husband had a procedure yesterday where they put a scope down his throat and took a tiny clipping of his esophagus so it's safe to say he has a sore throat too. The outpatient center ...
Pros: trusted brand, numb your throat, variety of flavors Cons: not totally cherry tasting
When I moved back to Florida a little over 3 weeks ago now I had no idea what I was in for. But it was rainy and turning cold when we left and my sinuses immediately went into a tailspin when I entered the heat of the southern states. About four days ...
Pros: works great! Numbs and cools, great flavors, and easy to open foil Cons: Non
I first came across Cepacol Extra Strength Instant Relief Sore Throat Lozenges about a month ago when I had a horrible sore throat, which was worse when first waking up in the morning. I could barely talk and when I did, I was in a lot of pain. I headed ...
Pros: Helps you to swallow Cons: Other alternatives exist with the same ingredient which might be cheaper.
Ack. A sore throat. Ack and double ack. There’s nothing worse then a sore throat, and the pain that goes with it. You can’t swallow, you can’t sleep, and it pretty much just sucks. This particular product has been my favorite for a while, mostly because ...
Pros: None that I can think of. Cons: Expensive; ineffective; bad taste; not individually wrapped.
When you think of the “crud” you think of a cough, runny nose, itchy and watery eyes, and so many other uncomfortable symptoms. Unfortunately, the most bothersome symptom is also the hardest to get rid of…the sore throat. If you’ve ever had a cold, flu, ...
Cepacol is the best sore throat lozenge around! by suzanne33 ,Oct 10 '06
Pros: Takes away all of the pain. Cons: Cepacol is a tad more expensive than other cough drops.
I came down with the flu about a week ago and ended up with a sore throat. Throughout my life, I have not been able to find a good cough drop that will take away the pain. I finally have! When I get sick, I have severe throat pain, and this is the only thing that has been able to take it away.
Pros: Readily available. Cons: Doesn't work. At all. Stomach Ache to go with sore throat.
I have tried this product on several occassions because my boyfriend swears by it...I don't think my boyfriend gets real sore throats.
My first reaction when trying this product was Ewww!! Gross!!!! My second reaction was - "I think I am going to barf"
The product tastes disgusting, but that is only the beginning. No matter how many times I try Cepacol, it never helps relieve the pain. At all. But it does give me an awful stomach ache, which sort of, indirectly, distracts me so I don't think about my sore throat.
I will never try it again. In four simple words, the product doesn't work.
