Vicks VapoDrops Butter Menthol Lozenges 24 Pack

I always have a packet of these in my first-aid kit, especially in winter or when I fly. I use them when I suffer from slight cold symptoms, like clogged/blocked nose, scratchy throat and minor idiopathic dry coughing, and they work well for me. Besides, I love the taste. If I get serious dry or chesty coughing I would get other lozenges or just prescription medication. Yet, this is not always needed because my blocked airways are sometimes the result of very dry air-conditioned environments, long flights or just changes in weather that affect me. They're good priced too.

SECOND VERSION, AS THE FIRST ONE, WAS NOT PUBLISHED

I always have a packet of these at home, especially in winter or when I have a long flights. I use them when I suffer from slight cold symptoms, like clogged/blocked nose, scratchy throat and light dry coughing, and they work well for me. Needless to say, I don't use this for chesty coughing or severe dry coughing. I also love the taste.

Vicks VapoRub 50 g

I got a viral infection recently and I was having problems sleeping due to my nose breathing being difficult and having a dry cough. This jar brings back so many memories from childhood that I thought I'd give it a try now, decades later. The smell is strong and pervasive, therefore, it stinks any clothes; that being the case, I used old worn out pajamas while applying the product. The rub really helped to keep my breath flow and to sleep better. It didn't help with my coughing, so I supplemented this with lozenges from the same brand. I noticed that rubbing the product on my chest wasn't enough, so I also rubbed it on my throat so the vapors would reach my mouth and nose, and there was a noticeable improvement. A little dollop goes a long way. Good value for money.

Vicks VapoDrops + Cough Orange Menthol 36 Lozenges

I've used these lozenges to recover from a viral infection with bouts of dry cough. It has really helped me to settle the coughing, especially in early mornings and late evenings. I have another packet of similar lozenges, and these ones are the ones that helped me. I like the mix of menthol and orange flavour as the orange masks the strong menthol and makes it more palatable to me. These lozenges have sugar and are sweet but not overly so. Great value for money. I will buy again.
