GOOD AS A MEDICINE BUT HAS SOME BAD EFFECTS ALSO
Mar 18, 2016 05:54 PM 5262 Views

Now a days whenever anyone in a family suffers from cold he is treated with vicks. like every family we had also bought the vicks for curing cold.we bought it from the nearby shop when I was suffering cold in the month of december.  this gave me instant relief and I must say it is good as a medicine but it also has some bad effects which I will tell you later.


coming on to alternate brands then'zandu balm' is a god alternative for this vicks  vaporub. if you have dislikings for vicks then I can suggst you to go for zandu balm.


only adult people should us this not the small children as it can prove fatal to them as it can block their respiratory system.


now let's move to the bad effects of vicks first of it is very sticky and it's overuse can actually hat your body that you may get high fever.


another effect is that it has some drugs like'azidothymidin' and'aldosterone'and this if inhaled by any small children in even small quantity then it may be fatal to his/her life.


it's fragrance is so strong that sometime it may cause reactions in the body of an allergic person


thanks

Bad for Babies....!!!
Mar 18, 2016 05:32 PM 4522 Views

Vicks Vaporub we are using it from our childhood its one the of the favorite product of the indians.Vicks vaporub is in every house of India.we use it in cold & cough.Its coooling effects makes us to like it.It is very Effective in cold and cough But wait.It is Banned in America and Europe.yes you heard Right.but there is a confusion it is banned or not.but 1 thing is sure that it is not good for heath of small baby under 2 years.


For 2 Years Baby


It is Not good for babies it can create severe breathing problems to small baby.parents are warned against using Vaporub for cold and coughs symptoms in children under the age of 2 years.If Vicks Applied directly Under the nose can lead to breathing problems for babies.


Any Menthol and Camphor based product like Vicks Vaporub is Toxic and can be harmful for babie's Respiratory system.Vicks vaporub is not meant for Children under the age of 2 years.and it can create Congestion.Vicks company clearly mentioned the warning that keep it out of children's Reach and not to use it on children below the age of 2.


Vaporub should Apply On chest and throat for cold and coughs.it is oil based, so it should not use under the nose or inside the mouth.it can enter into the lungs if not used properly.


For Adults


Vicks Vaporub should Rubbed on chest, throat and back and also used it in a warm water i.e. Steam inahlation.It is Not Recommended putting Vicks under the nose of anyone i.e. Adult or child.Avoid getting vicks in contact with eyes and mouth.wash the hands properly and do not apply vicks on the broken skin.


The best treatment for congestion is take a saline water or soup or warm water.


The Truth is Vicks is not banned in America or by WHO.we can use it but as per the Instructions.specially for babies.If any breathing problems occur go & consult a doctor.


asap.hope my review will be helpful for you guyss.what you feel about this product share in my comment section.thank you

Superb Product For Cold
Mar 10, 2016 01:32 PM 3280 Views

Vicks Vaporub has existed for years. Most people follow one of these in your medicine cabinet because it really works.


It works for the whole family, for adults and children over two years old. It is available in regular and menthol aroma also lemon. Personally I prefer the scent of menthol. It comes in a tub of blue with a screw cap.


The ointment itself is very thick and once applied has a cooling effect in the first. It works with medicated vapors that relieve the symptoms of cold conditions and common respiratory. It can be applied to the chest, throat and back. should not be applied to the nose.


Great for applied before bedtime to help ease breathing during the night. For young children it is great to apply to the soles of the feet with warm socks for the night.


If necessary you can put a little hot water for a good steam head under a towel to relieve congestion in the head. Available from good supermarkets and pharmacies. Reasonably priced.


I recommend this product to anyone who needs the heating due to the common cold or flu, especially for young people,


thank you.

Dangerous medicine - vicks
Feb 22, 2016 07:19 PM 3682 Views

Vicks become very danger when we used it continuously. People think that vicks vaporub is good for cold relief. I had the experience, once I used vicks for cold, at first it relieves the cold and after sometime the cold becomes high and I could not breath properly.


If we use vicks frequently, breathing problems may causes. parents should not use vicks vaporub for their children. In every home, vicks is available for relief cold

Really effective

Vicks vaporun is really very effective product if you are suffering for cold or fever due to common cold.it gives great relief from running nose.just take it on finger and rub in bak nose and on neck. It is very old and most used product in India.


It is totally reliable. Medium size bottle comes around in 60 rs. Vicks also make tablet to eat for relief in sore throat but vaporub is more effective and I think safer then tablet. So it is great value of money and very much usefull product, I always keep this with me when I used to go on tour and at home as well.

Best product for cold relief
Jan 28, 2016 06:24 PM 3781 Views

Vicks vaporub is very effective gel which gives you relief from common cold, nose blockage, headaches etc.


When ever I suffer from  these problems I always use vicks to get relief, it is very easy to use also. Just apply the gel on your nose, chest and forhead before sleeping and in morning when you wake up you will feel the difference.


According to me consuming tablets for these disorders is not neccecery because vicks does the same work if you use it externally. There is no other better brand than vicks in case of giving relief from cold. When your nose is blocked due to cold it becomes very difficult to sleep, applying vicks will surely help you to sleep peacefully the whole night. Vicks vaporub is proved very useful for me I hope you will also get good results when you use it.

Worst Things to use for Cure
Jan 27, 2016 08:50 AM 2738 Views

I am using Vicks from my childhood and it was really very effective but from 6 years the quality of the Vicks is decreasing and its price is increasing.


Now it doesn't provide any quick relief from cold. It produce chest congestion instead of reducing cold which is very harmful. I suggest all of you do not apply this vaporub on children, it will be harmful for them. It is only good at the time of steam. Otherwise it is a useless product.


There is nothing remained good in Vicks Vaporub. All the previous qualities have been removed and the new qualities of this cream are its drawbacks. So my suggestion is to avoid using this cream and consult your doctor in case of cold.
