For Cold Symptoms "This is the best cold medication I have ever taken. We found it in Mexico under the name Tabcin (Bayer product), but a Google search showed that it is the same as Alka-Seltzer Plus. No side effects, doesn't make me drowsy or keep me awake, perfect any time of day, and makes me feel great! I don't know why it is not available in the U.S. or Canada."

For Cold Symptoms "This stuff makes me so tired I cannot get out of bed. It cleared my runny nose and headache, but at a huge cost, I am exhausted!"

For Sinus Symptoms "It works, but at a cost. I still feel the side effect, and I took it at 6 pm and 6 am, so if you have plans for morning, it's not the best choice, but it does work."

For Cold Symptoms "I have taken the green and orange gel capsules every time I get cold symptoms. I love the gel capsules. I tried the tablets that you dissolve in water, but the capsules work way better in my opinion."

For Cold Symptoms "This caused shortness of breath. I barely made it to the hospital. This should not be an over-the-counter medicine."

For Cold Symptoms "This product is very effective, but your commercials are extremely goofy. I turn the channel every time one comes on. Bring the Alka-Seltzer boy out of retirement."
