Vicks doesnot give relief from pains
Feb 16, 2017 04:24 PM 2001 Views

Hi friends,


I want to share my review on Vicks Vaporub and many people use this from their childhood to get relief from the cold and other pains and I am not at all satisfied with this Vicks from many days and the functioning is not at all up to the mark.


The effectiveness of using this balm are very less and we get air for the blocked noise and the cold is not reduced with this Vicks and this is not suitable for a headache and other pains and these are very dangerous if we use daily and the people are addicted to using this medicine.


The cost of this one is not so high but I feel it is not worthy of purchasing this Vicks bottle with a large amount of medicine in it.


Pros:


Gets relief from the running nose.


cons:


This one is not suitable for a headache and other pains.


Thank you

Vicks Vaporub is only for relief in cold
Feb 15, 2017 07:14 PM 2368 Views

Hi friends,


I want to share my review on Vicks Vaporub and I am using this Vicks Vaporub from my childhood onwards and this Vicks is only suitable for noise relief and it is not for any headaches and the gel inside this bottle is very loose to touch and it is used by many people for relief.


The cost of this Vicks is very high and the Vicks usage is very easy and the bottles are available in various sizes and the cost of this Vicks is not so high and it is available at a reasonable cost only.


This Vicks is used for throat relief and the children are mainly using this Vicks and the elders can also use this for better relief from cold.


Finally, it is recommendable.


Thank you,

Vicks reaction
Feb 13, 2017 11:44 PM 5040 Views (via Android App)

Vicks is an popular product for every common man when anyone suffers from cold and cough , headache and stiff cough inside chest and nose .


Usually when we apply vicks we feel relief from headache and stiff cough .


But most of the time it shows reaction on many people . I have experience it many times .after applying vicks on chest , neck , nose , head it gives you relief for some temporary time .but next day again in morning the issues will be more than it was last .


So it means that it does not work for all .so be carefull and then only use it after consuling to Dr .


Thank you

Hi friends, we all love nature and natural climate is best for everyone. as I live in New Delhi and UP, most of you are aware about the varying climate of these regions. this region experience every climate time to time, in view of that occurring of cold, cough is obvious. I would suggest you not to take medicine when u get cold, just keep Vicks vaporub beside your bed. this will give everything which u would be spending by going to a doctor. a minimum charge including medicine will come around 500 Rs. This Vicks Vaporub is very effetive in these symptoms as there is no side effect. medicine will surely have that. in case of heavy cold, you can inhale steam with vicks, which would give you great relief. One my son was having very tough cold, no medicine worked, finally which made him comfortable was this Vicks Vaporub steam. its value for money.

Vicks has launched various product in which Vicks vaporub is one of that product. But I have seen many reports on Vicks product. As per America reports it does not have gud content in it. It causes some cancer problem and many such diseases. It contain harmful chemical in it. It is not effective as mention in advertisement. Though it is very cheap in price but don't see its price, see the causes it will gives u.

Effective when inhailed
Jan 31, 2017 04:08 PM 4338 Views (via Android App)

Vicks Vapotub is very effect when it is inhailed by using hot water. The formula of vicks vaporub is effective in relieving cold but the only cons about the bicks vaporub is that its price. The price is very high its is unaffordable to poor people. There is value for money on this product due to its effectivness only but from my view price is too high and should be reduced. The design of the container is superiorly designed which keeps the inner content of the container very safe. The label is also attractive which matches with the colour of the container bottle. I recommend to try vicks vaporub as it is really effective in curing

I know it as a common cold reliever
Jan 26, 2017 02:22 PM 2236 Views

Although its recommended use is for pain relief, in our house, it is mainly used for nasal congestion and phlegm and common cold. Just boil the water to steam, put a little Vicks Vaporub in it with a broom stick or something, cover yourself with a towel, put your face on the steam, and inhale the Vicks laboriously. The relief it gives during that punishing common cold time is unparalleled.


You will get small pocket packs of Vicks for as low as 20 to 30 Rs, something anyone can spare as it is worth it

Best Pain Reliver
Jan 06, 2017 07:09 PM 2215 Views

Vicks Vaporub is the best pain relief balm I have ever used.It is the instant pain reliever mostly used by many people.In our family we completely rely on this balm for minor pain related issues and I am using it from my childhood. You can apply the vicks Vaporub for the cold and it is best for that. If you have a running nose, the only thing that gives me the relax is the vicks very effective for the headache.It is believed to give relax from many body aches and pains including the muscular pain.Applying on the chest area can be a allowed one. But don't give it to the babies, as they may accidentally swallow it resulting in the dangerous effects.Recently I got slipped in the water and my head gets hurted very badly.And when I went to the physician, she didn't give me any other medicines but advised me to apply the so called' vicks Vaporub' on the swelled area.It gives me nice results, just after a single day the haematoma got reduced and I felt much relaxed and relieved from the head pain.

An Instant relief from Decongestion
Jan 03, 2017 09:09 PM 2814 Views

Vicks Vaporub is in use since very old days. During flue and cold it is specially used as a decongestant. Apart from this traditional therapeutic use, there are other many uses too. It gives relief from cold coughs if its vapor is taken. Researchers have found that even its application on body stretch marks is also effective to some extent. But before the application of any kind of medication in case of children one must consult a physician about its pros and cons. After all it must be kept in all households as it is an effective medication for flue, cold and cough.

Hello frends.


Vicks vaporub ointment is widely used for relieving decongestion in cold. It is used in cold cough and bodyache and block nose.


Vaporub can be inhaled with hot steam. Since VapoRub ointment is an oil-based medication, it should not be used under or inside the nose or inside the mouth, and it should not be swallowed. Any oil-based product can get into the lungs if used improperly.


For cough suppression, rub a thick layer of Vicks VapoRub on your chest and throat. Cover with a warm, dry cloth if desired. Keep clothing around your throat and chest loose to allow the vapors to reach the nose and mouth. For muscle and joint pain, rub Vicks VapoRub onto the affected area no more than three to four times daily.


Inactive Ingredients-


Regular & Lemon:


cedarleaf oil


nutmeg oil


petrolatum


thymol


turpentine oil


Lemon:


lemon fragrance


It is good for sweat dream.

Vicks Vapourub is an Unique Product.
Dec 09, 2016 08:48 AM 3464 Views

Recently I have undergone with severe cold that I couldn't even in-take by breath properly. I used other balms which I felt unreist to the hard flavour they use in their products( Zandu Balm, Amurtanjan) . Using Vicks Vapourub solved my problem and made me feel relaxed, since it doesn't contain any hard flavoured content in it . Vicks Vapourub is highly effective and I would highly recommend to the one who suffer  from cold . The money I spent on this product is very much worth and I am using it from now when there is need of vicks vapourub the great replacement to all balms while suffering with cold. Some would bother about their kids using the other balms which gives them irritation as well. Highly Recommend to the kids.


Not very good!!!
Dec 04, 2016 11:18 AM 2458 Views (via Android App)

Balm is a gel which relieves pain quickly overnight. So now you are thinking that it relieves pain. It relieves pain but not very quickly it should be applied for like 2 days than the pain relieves. It is not an ideal choice because the balm it self is not strong . So I think you can go for it if you apply this on small children.


So to conclude the review and make it easy for you to understand the balm is not very strong it is enough for small pain relieves but not big pains to be relieved . If you are applying this on small children than go for it.
