Product Description
Vicks Cold & Cough Relief Vaporub 50g is the iconic, medicated chest rub used by generations to provide comforting relief from cold symptoms. When applied to the chest, throat and back, the active ingredients (camphor, menthol and eucalyptus oil) release powerful medicated vapours that penetrate the nose and throat to help relieve nasal congestion, ease coughing and soothe minor aches and pains associated with colds. The thick, petrolatum-based ointment creates a warming, soothing sensation on the skin while the vapours provide long-lasting inhalation relief (up to 8 hours). It is especially effective at night to help promote easier breathing and more restful sleep during cold & flu season. The 50g jar is compact and economical for frequent use, with a screw-top lid to keep it fresh. The classic strong Vicks menthol-eucalyptus scent is instantly recognizable and comforting.
