Vicks Or No Name Brand / myLot

Canada

December 31, 2017 8:41am CST

This morning I used my "No Name Brand" Inhaler Nasal Vapor Breather Tube. I must tell you that it worked as good as the Vicks brand. It did its works and now I can breath better. When I got up, I was worried that I had a cold like so many people are having right now. I hope that I will escape this one. I have enough other problems as it is. How many of you got this terrible "flu"? I hope not too many.

It's somehow not better for our health.

@marlina Since we have vicks here I use it. I have used something else and you are probably right there is no difference but I like vicks.

I have heard of a few people here at mylot who have had the flu. I thankfully have not. Most the time generics work just as well as name brands!

You are right for the generic names : most of the time they are made by the brand name company.

I buy most of my meds by the generic words. They cost a lot less.

I do like vicks ... but only usse the cream not tbe inhaler... but i'm glad your no name one worked as well.... I think product standards have to be met...whoever is producing them... and these dayscyou can get some very good no name brands that work well ...

I have a Vicks brand in my purse and a no name brand in my bedroom. They both work the same.

I don't use the inhaler, but I do like to put vicks on my chest at night some times when I'm really sick. I have had this bug since Dec 7th and still feel the effects of it. I hope that you get overs soon, and that I do as well.
