Pros: No jitteriness, relieves most symptoms, induces drowsiness as promised, not many drug interactions Cons: Short acting, no decongestant for those who need it
Getting sick stinks for everyone but, for me, it's a real pain because I can't take most of the remedies that work. I have an underactive thyroid and am on a thyroid hormone drug that replaces what my body doesn't make. That is all fine but, because of ...
Pros: One capsule works for me, multi-symptom relief
Cons: Packaging is a royal pain – need scissors!
Last month I had a sore throat that followed with a brutal cough that even affected my asthma and sleeping. I had a sample packet consisting of two green softgels from Vicks® NyQuil® LiquiCaps that worked like a charm one night when I spent an...
Pros: Helps with congestion. My husband loves it. Capsules!!!!!!!!! Cons: Kept me up most of the night. Dry mouth.
I came down with a bad cold/sinus problem. I work at many different schools and tend to catch everything that is going around that is new. It's getting better each year I work in the schools. Anyway, I was miserable. My husband swears by this so I...
Pros: Really works! Cons: makes you sleepy so you can't use it during the day
We bought this at first because we thought the commercial was cute. You know, the night time, sniffling, sneezing...well, you get the picture. As it happened, we both had colds. I wasn't really sure what to buy. My mother used some stuff that I didn't...
Pros: Like the liqui-cap, helps you to fall asleep and sty asleep. Cons: none
Everyone in my family has gotten sick this week. My husband had a chest cold, my son and daughter-in-law both had a virus,my grandson had a sore throat and a head cold.
I was so proud of myself because I was the only one that didn't get sick....
Pros: Relieve the symptoms of a bad cold. Cons: Can make you drowsy.
I have been a long time user of NyQuil for those lousy days of a runny nose, bad cough, chills, and aches of a fever. But lets face it, who likes the taste of medication. NyQuil is by far, one of the worst tasting medications out there....
Pros: multisymptom, effective, doesn't taste bad Cons: more expensive than some other medications of this type, people with certain conditions should not take this.
I was really glad when Vicks came out with this product, because as well as the liquid form of Nyquil works, it is almost impossible for me to take. It both tastes and smells so foul that I am pretty much unable to swallow it. I tried and tried, but...
Pros: Easy to swallow, relieves many cold symptoms Cons: None
Having a cold during the day is bad enough. Coughing, sore throat, congestion, and just feeling bad. Even worse at night, is not being able to sleep thanks to the cold symptoms. I remember as a kid, my mom would give me Vicks NyQuil in the liquid form,...
Pros: Excellent Relief, LiquiCaps, Peaceful Sleep & All Through The Night. Cons: None For Me
I get colds alot, so I have tried most cold medicines available. There are problems with most of them, either they dont have an important ingedient, they have an ingredient you can't take, etc. NyQuil is free of these problems, it has all the ingredients ...
Pros: It Works! Gets me a great night's sleep while controlling cold symptoms Cons: leaves me groggy in the morning
I hate being sick. Often times, being sick means insomnia for me. The coughing, sneezing, and headaches make me toss and turn all night long. Most recently, I have been stricken with a minor flu. Not fun.
Pros: truly tackles all of your cold symptoms AND helps you sleep Cons: you can't take it during the day
They call it the nighttime sniffling, sneezing, coughing, aching, stuffy head, fever, so you can rest and have a good morning medicine. Quite a mouthful? Yes. Catchy though, isn't it? And 100% true. This is my cold medicine of choice.
Pros: Liquid Gel Caps don't have a nasty taste like other medicine! Cons: You WILL sleep. Don't take it if you don't have time to sleep!
NyQuil Liqui-Caps have always worked consistently for me. While other cold medicines have randomly differing effects, this one does the same thing every time.. it knocks me out. This is a good thing when you have a hideous cold/flu (I can never...
Pros: Worked well on most symptoms. Cons: Didn't help sore throat. Large pills may be hard for some people to swallow.
In my review on DayQuil LiquiCaps I explained that when the weather starts to change, I always end up with a cold. It never fails. This time I have armed myself with DayQuil and NyQuil LiquiCaps.
Pros: Prevents a Cold from Getting Worse; Lessens the Duration of the Common Cold; Makes You Feel Better; No Side Effects Cons: A Bit Pricey; Sometimes Hard to Find Due to Popularity;Only Works on Colds
Disclaimer This article talks about Zicam Cold Remedy, and only superficially about Nyquil Gelcaps. Zicam is too important a product during the cold season to ignore while Epinions tries to catch up with its product suggestion backlog. What...
