    This stuff WORKS

    I’m always skeptical of things labeled homeopathic, but this stuff lives up to its promise. It saved my husband and I from multiple rounds of colds. I encouraged my other family members to try and all of them share the same sentiment. It stops a cold within a day.

    Amazing stuff

    This stuff worked wonders! I had a sore throat all day, got this later the same night and used about three tablets before I went to bed, when I woke up no more symptoms of the beginning of a cold! I couldn’t believe how good it worked! Only thing is the citrus tastes horrible but I would rather deal with that than getting sick.

    Love taking at the first sign of a cold or flu. It definitely helps it not get as bad and doesn’t last as long. And I love the citrus!

    👌

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried Zicam Cold Remedy Citrus RapidMelts and I was pleasantly surprised. They’re easy to take, dissolve quickly in the mouth, and have a light citrus flavor that isn’t too strong or medicinal. I noticed that when I took them at the first signs of a cold, my symptoms didn’t get as bad, and I felt a bit more relief throughout the day. They didn’t upset my stomach, which is a big plus compared to other cold remedies. Overall, they’re a convenient and effective option if you want something quick to help reduce cold symptoms early on. I would definitely keep them on hand for cold season.

    "Orange Cream" flavor is better than "Citrus" flavor

    Get the Orange Cream. Pass on Citrus. Citrus flavor isn’t nearly as good. But it works and it definitely decongested my nose too. I swear by this product.

    Works quickly tastes ok

    I didn’t start taking these until 3 days into having a cold. I had an itchy throat, congestion, runny nose and inflammation in my nostrils as well. Once I started taking these it immediately brought me so much relief. I just wish I had taken them sooner. The taste is ok, don’t love it but also don’t hate it. Would recommend this to anyone with a cold!!
