I was raised using Optrex Eye Wash products, being told that this was the best thing for tired or irritated eyes, or even minor eye infections. These days, whilst I can certainly still see the benefits of such a medicine, I must confess I prefer using different eye …

Piriteze Anti-Histamine tablets come in boxes of 7 or 30, and are to be taken once a day. I first tried these when I had really bad headaches, concentrated around the sinuses, a heavy pressure around my eyes, and constant draining into my throat. I realized that …

I found Target Anti-Histamine Allergy Relief tablets when I was looking for a US replacement medicine for a UK allergy medicine that I was used to taking, but unable to find easily for sale in the US. The UK medicine had the active ingredient Cetirizine Hydrochloride 10mg, and …

Vicks has been a staple in my life ever since I was a little girl and my mother used to lather that goop vapor rub all over my chest when I was feeling bad. It’s a trustworthy company and product line, so when I saw the Vicks Formula 44 …

I had terrible cold and influenza few days ago. I think I was too late to take vitamin C, so I had to suffer from this terrible sickness. The fever came together with the cold and it really disturb my works. I could not concentrate doing my job with …

When I sit too long in front of my notebook, sometimes I have red eyes. And sometimes it really hurt as well. If I can see that I get red eyes, I will not wait any longer to put eye drops on both eyes. And for this, I choose …

I was once saw this in a tv commercial, where a child is sick and has a high fever and his grandmother wrapped him on his blanket so his temperature will go down. Then his mother comes and introduced Dolan, an ibuprofen which is good for fevers or pains. …

I have to admit that I wasn’t particularly looking forward to using this spray, but I absolutely loved the cough/chest cold syrup from the Vicks Formula 44 line that I tried, so I was still willing to give this one a shot. Usually, honey and lemon medicines just taste like …

I’ve used Vicks products for a very long time, and have always had a lot of trust in products like their vapor rub. I’ve tried some of their cold and cough syrups too (much like NyQuil in their effectiveness), and when I saw these in the Vicks Formula 44 …

I always love products that are a rip-off of name brand products because the name of them crack me up. This one was obviously based on the Robitussin formula. And, ultimately, I didn’t care if it was a name brand product or not, so long as it worked and …

I honestly didn’t even know that Alka-Selzter came out with a liquid for cold symptom relief. I’d always associated their products with the dissolvable tablets that you drink in a glass of water. But, I’ve always liked Alka-Seltzer products, so didn’t have a problem spending the $5 to buy …

I was always prescribed Allegra from my doctor, but I’d tried some of the zyrtec over-the-counter products in the past. I have pretty intense allergy symptoms, so there’s pretty much nothing that I haven’t tried to treat it, especially considering those wonderful 24-hour prescription medications would maybe last me …

I’d always associated Chloraseptic products with the sore throat spray, and even some cough drops or cough syrup, but I guess more companies are making strides to expand their product line, and I was pleasantly surprsied to find their Chloraseptic Allergen Block Gel. It was definitely one of the …

I think the only real reason I picked up this product was because of it’s $3 price tag. My husband and I support a family of four off a very limited income at times, and when my kids get sick, it pains me to spend $7 on a product …

I’ve used more than my fair share of Good Sense products over the years, mostly because of it’s affordability. This box of Good Sense Allergy Relief Tablets was only $1.60, and you honestly can’t beat that. It’s a hard brand to find in most stores, but if you can, …

I really love Hyland’s products. I’ve used them for many years, and used many different products from their product line. I like the company because they use natural ingredients, and it’s safe for kids. And, though I may be sickly at times and have no problem taking any variety …

I love Mucinex products. I really do. They are pretty expensive, but they always seem to work pretty well too. I’ve rarely seen a Mucinex product appropriate for younger children, but when I do, I’m always willing and eager to snatch them up and have them on hand for …

I actually forgot that Sinutab even used to exist, but when I saw it on the shelves not too long ago, memories came flooding back and I remember taking Sinutab products when I was a kid. I hadn’t seen it in years, and was actually in a health supply …

I have used this antibiotic prescription medication a number of times in the past for different types of infections I have had. My doctor recently prescribed this medication to me last week for a infection I have developed in the sinuses. I thought I would publish a review on …

My son is now in High school and you better believe that one of the things that we deal with on a daily basis is the fact that he has acne. I never thought much of it because when I was younger that was something that we dealt with and …

I don’t know what goes through a company’s head when it’s deciding how or what to name their product, but the name of this product alone almost detered me from trying it in the first place. I think it ended up boiling down more to curiosity than a real …

I could build a house out of the boxes of all the allergy medications I’ve used over the last ten years. A whole HOUSE! That’s how many differen’t products I’ve tried. Some of them work, but because I have allergies year round, they tend to lose their effectiveness as …

I hate the fact that I’ve tried as many allergy and sinus medications as I have, but the severity of my allergies doesn’t really allow for me NOT to take something. Even the prescription medications and nasal sprays that I’ve been giving aren’t really any more effective than most …

I began taking Xenical about three months ago and I can honestly say the results have been very disappointing. The first week I experienced absolutely nothing, no weight lost, no strange side effects, it was like I wasn’t taking it at all. The doctor told me this was normal …

When I was a kid, I used to lay in bed for hours, unable to fall asleep and sometimes with quite a feeling of the “jitters”. I was unable to lay still and could never get comfortable and, as I got older, had to resort to taking sleeping pills …

I’ll be honest and say I’ve never seen ringworm a day in my life til it looked like my oldest son had it. I’m not sure how it got it or what caused it, but I at least knew enough about it to know what it looks like, and …

A few weeks ago, I ended up running into a door at work and there was a key poking out of the lock and I dragged my whole arm across and ended up with quite a cut and a huge bruise, and it was so painful that I found …

A few months ago, my dog and I were playing. He accidentally hit my radial nerve on my wrist, with his tooth, and caused some nerve damage. After around a month, I went to the doctor and she put me on neurontin, generic version, for the nerve …

Though I don’t particularly care for taking a syrup of any kind when I’m not feeling good, there was a period of years when that’s the only thing I could give my kids. They were too young to take a pill and there weren’t that many products out there …

My husband and I have a difference of opinion when it comes to the best cold medicine out there (or one of the best anyway). When he’s sick and asks me to get him something from the store, my first instinct is always to bring home the TheraFlu packages …

My kids don’t typically take cold syrups very easily. In fact, I usually have to chase them around the house and hog tie them to get them to take anything like that in a liquid form. Problem was, they were too young at the time to swallow a pill, …

Eight or nine years ago when I moved from Arkansas to Michigan with my husband, I was immediately overcome with allergies. I had never experienced them a day before in my life until I moved here, and it’s been a constant in my life ever since. We didn’t have …

I didn’t even realize there was really this many Vicks Vapor products on the market, and was a little surprised to see that they had a Vapo Syrup out there. Because I’ve always liked Vicks and have relied on their dependability over the years, I was willing to spend …

I recently tried a Walgreens vaporizing steam liquid that I felt was very effective in relieving my sinus congestion, so when I saw that Vicks had a similar product, I wanted to try it. Price wise, this was about $3 more expensive for the exact same amount of liquid, …

I doubt I’m the only one who has ever done this, but when I’ve got some sinus and chest congestion going on, I’ll boil a pot of water, cover my head with a towel and bend over the steaming water to help clear everything out. It isn’t the most …

I am a huge fan of TheraFlu products and was absolutely thrilled to find they had a patch to help relieve sinus and chest congestion. When I was a little girl and got sick, my mother was always lathering me down with Vicks Vapor Rub and, to this day, …

This is one of those instances in which is pretty obvious why eucalyptus should remain an aromatherapy scent and not a flavor for anything. My husband is a huge fan of cough drops and he has never minded the medicinal taste and, at times, even seems to prefer. I, …

I took some Airborne products for a week straight before heading on a trip, as it was recommended to me by a friend who said it was a great preventative product to take to keep airport/travel sicknesses from affecting you, and I didn’t get sick the whole two weeks, …

I recently reviewed this product, but with the lemon-lime flavor, and I have to say, the orange was so much better! It worked just the same, and was just as effective, but the flavoring was well worth investing in another version of the same product. Basically, Wal-born just acts …

I’m assumed, by the name of the product, that it was like a generic TheraFlu cold medicine. Walgreens is infamous for barely changing the names of things to pawn it off as their own, but honestly, I’ll take it if it means I’m saving even a little bit of …

In our household, there should always be pain-reliever medicines. My dad for one always complains of back pains, shoulders pains, etc. but almost all of us in the family usually suffer from really bad headaches. I for one don’t experience it much but when I do, it’s something that …

Of all the sleeping pills I’ve tried over the years, this deal is probably the best, financially speaking. You get 100 tablets with the Walgreens Nighttime Sleep Aid Mini-Caplets Mini-Caplets and for only $10, which isn’t bad as all. I was used to paying close to $5 for Tylenol …

I love Theraflu products. There’s nothing quite as comforting when you’re sick as curling up with a blanket and a nice hot cup of something that will soothe all the awful symptoms you’re experiencing. I’ve used many different theraflu products in the past but had yet to try their …

I had tried another kind of Walgreens sleep aid a while back and wasn’t overly impressed with it, because after taking three an hour before bed, I honestly didn’t feel very tired at all, and it didn’t help me stay asleep at night, which is one of my biggest …

Not getting enough sleep has been a constant problem in my life, for as long as I can remember. Even as a pre-teen, I remember laying in bed, getting up two hours later and crying to my mom that no matter what I did, I just couldn’t fall asleep. …

I have literally tried everything to help treat my allergy symptoms which, depending on the type of year, can be mild or quite severe. When they are severe, they can almost really interrupt my ability to function during a normal day. Even going outside to get in my car …

It amazes even me sometimes the kinds of products I come across. I like to try new products on a regular basis mostly because I just never know what’s going to work better than others. Any time someone in the house gets sick, I typically pick up something different, …

I get sore throats pretty regularly, far more often than I’d like anyway, because I have severe allergies that often drain and all the swallowing and blowing my nose and coughing up mucus (not a pretty picutre, I know), seems to cause a sore throat more often than not. …

My kids seemed to really benefit from the childrens version of this product, and Boiron has been a pretty reliable product line for us over the last many many moons, so when I started to show symptoms of the flu, I decided to try the adult version for myself. …

I’m a huge fane of Boiron products, because they use a lot of homeopathic or natural ingredients that are much safe for me to use on my children than more conventional medications. My kids have allergies quite often, and sometimes, as a result of that kind of congestion, they …
