Yeah the big problem is that it's sold in the drugstore right next to real medicine. It really baffles me. I used some Zicam because it was in my parents medicine cabinet and I didn't really think about it, just said "shortens duration of colds? Uh, OK, I guess I'll try it." Didn't even occur to me it wasn't real medicine! Well turns out Zicam contained zinc that destroyed some people's sense of smell! Uhhh... Whoops. I feel like a damn fool, I feel I should have known better and looked at the fine print. I went and assumed something packaged and sold as medicine was medicine.
