FDA: Zicam Nasal Spray Can Cause Loss of Smell

[BenkaiDebussy]

@ZeranZeran Congratulations on being a gullible person? If a medicine has been tested and shown not to perform better than placebo, it's not effective. Not to mention the fact that homeopathy is total nonsense.

I also think that a lot of people like yourself confuse the natural ending of their sickness with a medicine like zicam curing it. They'll take the medicine during their cold, get better naturally, and attribute it to the bunk medicine.

Complete bullshit!! The study is based on a 1930's report of a different type of zync. Also trying to discredit the inventor. I dont care if a Nigerian invented this product! the fact is it works 100% and the FDA is a GOD DAMN fraud! Its no coincidence that they managed to get it off the market before flu season.. Is it related to the health reform in some way hummmm..I am just about fed up with the fraud in this country and the greedy bastards that play with our lives. FDA= Fucking Dumb Asses!

I wonder what percentage of Zicam customers have actually been affected by this. The article says that over one hundred people have been affected. How many have used the product and NOT been affected? How many have actually used it with good results? It seems rather drastic a response when you consider that every bottle of beer and every pack of cigarettes has a warning label on it warning of severe health risks.

I bet if you had these patients that lost there since of smell could be cured by having them sit in a room of fresh hot feces

I jumped for joy at news of the crash air france flight 447. I love watching the plane sink to its watery grave. I enjoy hearing the passengers screaming for help. The sound of drowning passengers gasping for air is music to my ear. The bottom of atlantic ocean is an awesome place to sleep on. The moment the jet broke up in midair must have been a kodak moment. I'm disappointed that the death toll is so low. A bunch of bodies floating on the atlantic ocean would've been an awesome sight.

Why go around posting the same sick message on different videos?

You are a sick and disturbed human being in grave need of attention. The fact that you have no shame and find it humourous begs the question of the tramatic childhood event that has made you emotionally detached from the tragic loss of human life.

People like you are in the same league as Hitler and you are a scum to society and an embarassment to your family.

He's a troll. He gets off on people responding to this same post. Daddy didn't beat his ass enough during his younger years.

I would like to see the studies for myself. Sounds like this has more to do with big pharma losing money because of Zicam and seeings how they give our government millions of dollars a year in lobby money, the government has to look after them. Now instead of paying 20 bucks to treat your cold symptoms, you get to pay 150 bucks for something that has side effects very much like the cold you have which actually makes me question why we take them the first place.

[MrMP81]

lol and who do you think makes Zicam?

[exacerbatedtaboo]

Well a pharmaceutical company of course but I don't think they're nowhere near as big as Merk and Pfizer and Glaxo Smith Cline. This is a little pharmaceutical company in comparison to them. I don't know.....I just don't truth the government or the news anymore.

[MrMP81]

Believe me, I'm in the same boat. I don't blame the "Big companies" as much as I do the government for giving certain companies "favors" or writing "legislation" to monopolize them.

Matrixx Initiatives is worth Millions, so I wouldn't say they are that small =I

[BinkieMcFartnuggets]

Imagine taking Zicam to treat Swine Flu and never being able to smell bacon cooking again.

[chodaboy51500]

Why would anyone use a homeopathic anyway? It doesn't do anything.

[xxxFaustusxxx]

"It doesn't do anything."

Lies, it damages your sense of smell

[chodaboy51500]

Other than that :p

[gdernie]

How can you trust some one again when they lied to you. Shame on both Matrixx and the FDA!

[mike29571]

Great. Now my coke tastes like pepsi.

[TheStarDustGroup]

WTF

[mockingarab]

Why did they have to wait this long?

Fuck FDA

It takes time to see a correlation in these things. You can't just take a hand full of people and make a case from it. You must have a large sample.

[mockingarab]

Read Wikipedia article about it, people have been filing suits for years.
