Speaking about over the counter, has anyone one the list tried Zicam cold remedy? I've used it twice and all my symptoms disappeared with a few hours. No cold! Available at druggists for <$10/spray bottle (2 bottles for <$13 at Costco). No need for universities and major drug companies to spend millions searching for what will turn out to be an expensive prescriptive. Its here and now and over the counter. steve
