There are many great uses for this product. First of all any time I am sick and have a stopped up nose I always rub the Vicks on my chest and rub a little under my nose. It helps me breathe easier. If I have a cough I also use this to help suppress the cough. It not only suppresses the cough, but it also has a cooling sensation when you apply it to your chest. This also works as a great muscle rub when you are experiencing minor aches and pains. I have actually used this many times when I have pulled a muscle in my back.
There are many great ingredients in this one product. First of all there is Camphor, which is both a cough suppressant and a topical pain reliever. Second there is Eucalyptus oil, which works as a cough suppressant. Then it includes Menthol, which works as both a cough suppressant and another topical pain reliever. All three of these combine to make this product work efficiently. I must say that this is a product that my mom used to rub on my chest when I was a little girl. She used it to help me sleep when I was sick with bronchitis and pneumonia. It has been used by my family for many years because it is a great product. It is very inexpensive and works for what it is intended. It is easy to use because you just rub it on. You do not have to take it orally, so it is a great way to make you feel better without having to swallow a pill. I love this product and keep it on hand. It comes in handy when you are coming down with something or even if you just have some minor aches and pains. If you are looking for a great product to make you breathe easier, this is the product for you. If you are also looking for a great muscle rub, this is it.
