Pros: WORKS! possibly only Zinc product avail now that does
Cons: expense and small size...ie small volume. ? value.
drying, nauseating active zinc flavor (necessary)
Summary: Scientifically...google "Eby"...that's the name of the scientist who's done alot of work on zinc and colds...the effectiveness of any zinc remedy against colds is related to the presents of active Zinc ions (Zn). And active Zn ions taste drying ... read more

Pros: You will feel better within 24 hours.
Cons: The taste is horrendous by itself.
Summary: Well, it looks like it’s that time of year again, when the doctors are going to get rich off of everybody. You know when you wake up in the morning and you have that scratchy throat and runny nose and you know that you’re just going to feel like ... read more

Pros: Shortens duration and severity of common cold
Cons: Tastes awful after a day of use.
Summary: So you have a cold. Now what? Suffer? Blow your nose every five seconds and complain about the current administration? I got a better idea – use Zicam, blow your nose a lot less, and get rid of your cold twice as quick. Just don’t use this version of ... read more

Pros: Effective reduces symptoms, severity and duration of colds if used shortly after symptoms appear.
Cons: Taste
Summary: I was moving and burning the candle, once again, at both ends. I'd work 8 hours and go to the new home for an additional 6. It was about zero degrees outside and feet tend to get wet with the snow on the ground. Something had to give, this time it was ... read more

Pros: None
Cons: Mouth stinging, sores and serious discomfort. Not at all like other Zicam products.
Summary: I have been a Zicam user for about a year now. Everyone in my family just looks at me and laughs when I use it, but I get sick A LOT. I sometimes feel like I have no immune system whatsoever. Anyway, I usually take the nasal swabs, but wanted to try ... read more

Pros: Easy to use and works quickly on the symptoms.<br mce_bogus="1">
Cons: Mint flavor stays in my mouth for hours.
Summary: I have used Zicam Oral Mist several times over the past few years. It almost always knocks the cold out within one or two days. And during those days the symptoms are greatly reduced. I did notice a loss of taste and smell, but I experience that just

Pros: Does keep my cold symptoms usually at about 3-4 days
Cons: Taste and after effects
Summary: Have used the gel swabs for the last 2-3 years and they worked great. The gel felt like snot, but it also helped keep the inside of my nose moist. This new oral spray is horrible tasting-not so much at first, but then it turns nasty and screws up your

Pros: gets rid of cold early
Cons: tastes horrible, makes your tounge numb-feeling
Summary: I've used Zicam products before. This is my least favorite. After spraying it in your mouth, and holding it for 15 seconds and then not drinking anything for 15 minutes, my taste buds feel very numb. And not to mention it really does not taste

Pros: stops the cold virus from stopping me.

Pros: Works like a charm
Cons: Tastes like a curse
Summary: I am a big believer in Zinc remedies,having used Cold-eez for years. Alas, the Zicam spray left same metallic after-taste as the lozenges, but at least you don't have to keep it in your mouth for ten minutes like the slimy candy-like lozenges. Wrecks
