I have 5 boys and have used and still use it on each one! This stuff really works for congestion and helps them breath easier when they have colds. They will always ask for it!

Vicks VapoRub used to be a wonderful product! Stuffy nose? Grab "the Vicks". Headache? Grab "the Vicks"! Got a head cold? Grab "the Vicks"!!
Well, we finally ran out. No more Vicks in the house...had to go to WalMart to buy more. So, we did.
This is NOT the same Vicks our family has used for decades. Mom says "it's a cheap, low-down imitation of a fine product that once was". I say it smells VERY little of the Vicks I remember from my childhood all the way up to last week when we finally ran out of "the original"..
What happened??? Did the "real" products just become too expensive to keep using?

I used vaporub for a toenail fungal infection per my doctor's reccomendation. I suffered with this for about 10 years. I tried every over-the-counter remedy and an expensive prescription with no results. Per doctors orders I applied it and a bandage twice a day until my nail was clear plus 1 month. It is gone!

We stopped using oral cough suppressants (at least during the night time) with Vicks Vaporub. In the evening, before the night sleep I apply the small amount of the vaporub to the middle of the chest (bronchial area) of my 8 years old child, then the same amount to his back, making two lines from both sides of the spine. And it works: the boy sleeps well during the night, no coughing occurs. My boy loves the medication and keeps telling that it smells nice to him while he's asleep. Thanks for the great product.
Just wanted to add that I'm not living in the state of Georgia, but in country of Georgia, which is across the Atlantic ocean, on the Black Sea coast (unfortunately, your site does not provide the option to indicate my own country, hence my selection of the state). Having read in the internet about the product, I have asked my friends to bring the Vicks Vaporub from US because it's not available in my country. That is why I give only 4 stars to the value of the product. Five stars will appear when Vicks will be sold here, in the next drugstore.

I've used Vick's Vaporub for years and find it to be effective for breaking up head and chest congestion as well as relieving dry lips and taking the itch out of insect bites and hives. I will continue to buy the product, even though it is difficult to find in anything other than a small size and recommend it to everyone who has ever suffered the misery of a head cold.
