What is zicam?
Does Zicam really reduce the length of a cold? Can Zicam stop me from getting a cold? What medication is in Zicam? Is Zicam a prescription drug or holistic treatment? Are there generic versions of Zicam available? Where can I find printable coupons for Zicam?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Zicam is a homeopathic medicine, made with a zinc compound, which reduces the length and severity of a cold. It does work, but only if you don’t drink or eat anything containing vitamin C while you’re also using Zicam. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) binds with the zinc, making it useless. Zicam can’t stop you from getting a cold. Zicam is not a prescription drug. Zicam could be considered to be a part of holistic medicine as it is a homeopathic drug.

It should be noted that Zicam has been pulled from the shelves of many stores due to a large number of lawsuits over its use. Large numbers of people have lost their sense of smell after using Zicam. If you are interested in using Zicam, I strongly recommend that you discuss this risk with your doctor.
