RE: “I use Afrin very limited (one day, not the 2 or 3 day max stated). But it will open a nasal passage. It’s not homeopathic, however.
Zinc is zinc.”

I know someone who destroyed the nasal passages from overuse of Afrin and that was warned about decades ago. Lots of products include zinc. I love Zicam, have used it since it came on the market and will go buy more now.
Everything available out there causes problems for some people — take the lowly, but life saving aspirin. It can kill people while saving others who chew it while having a heart attack. Shall we take it off the market because a few people overdo its use and kill themselves via bleeding ulcers?
I call BS on all of this — and believe big pharma is behind it — I have very little use for the FDA and anything else run by the government.
I guess we need to check who Cheerios sponsors. FDA should be called Federal Destruction Administration.
