If you’re looking for a way to shorten the duration of a cold, Zicam Cold Remedy Zinc RapidMelts is a solid option. These dissolvable tablets contain zinc, which has been studied for its potential to reduce the length of colds when taken at the first sign of symptoms.
Pros:
✔ Cold-Shortening Formula: Many users report that taking Zicam at the first sign of a cold helps reduce symptom duration.
✔ Convenient & Easy to Use: The tablets dissolve quickly in the mouth without the need for water.
✔ Decent Cherry Flavor: While zinc can have a metallic taste, the cherry flavor helps mask it better than some other zinc products.
✔ No Drowsiness: Unlike many cold medicines, Zicam doesn’t cause drowsiness or other common side effects.
Cons:
✖ Taste Could Be Better: While the cherry flavor helps, there’s still a noticeable zinc aftertaste.
✖ Must Be Taken Early: It’s most effective if used at the first sign of a cold—waiting too long may reduce its benefits.
✖ Not a Cure: It won’t completely prevent or cure a cold, but it may help reduce symptoms and duration.
Final Verdict:
Zicam Cold Remedy Zinc RapidMelts is a good choice if you want to potentially shorten a cold’s duration without relying on traditional cold medicine. The convenience and lack of drowsy side effects are definite pluses, though the zinc taste may not be for everyone. If taken early, it can be a helpful addition to your cold-fighting routine.
