These are great to keep on hand for colds! It kicks a cold in the butt in only 1 or 2 days! Mix it up withhalf glass of water, stir it around and down the hatch and you will feel much better in a day! They have flavored ones, but i like the original. PLOP, PLOP, FIZZ, FIZZ! Highly recommend! It works! Not cheap, but worth getting rid of that cold fast...cheaper than a drs visit!

Alka Seltzer Plus Severe Cold takes away my sinus headache, and congestion almost immediately. It works extremely well for my cold symptoms. It does not make me drowsy. Great for head and bodyaches.

The good stuff. Fizzy even!
This product really works. It's fast, and gives you quick relief for everything from a very mild migraine, to feeling a lot better after a hangover! No lie! Oh, and it's also really great making your body feel good when you do have a bad cold.
