When a blocked nose and persistent cough disrupt your night's sleep, you feel less vital and energetic during the day. The discomfort of cold symptoms can significantly hinder your daily routine, especially when you have a busy schedule or are caring for your family. Vicks Vaporub offers the trusted support you need by using volatile oils that provide immediate relief, so you can breathe more freely again and find the rest that is essential for your recovery.
- Effectively relieves cold symptoms during flu and colds for a more comfortable feeling.
- Provides immediate relief of the airways through the inhalation of aromatic vapours.
- Flexible application as a rub or as a steam bath for a personal approach to your symptoms.
- Works long-term through the gradual release of volatile oils via body heat.
How it works
Vicks Vaporub combines the power of camphor, menthol, and eucalyptus in an ointment base. As soon as the ointment comes into contact with the skin, body heat causes the aromatic substances to evaporate. These vapours are inhaled and support the clearing of the airways. As your trusted health partner, VitAdvice offers this remedy as a practical solution for the whole family, where the traditional effect of essential oils is central.
