Alka Seltzer Plus Cold Medicine - still the best shizzle out there for the last 30 years
I defy you to give me a product that works better.

And now that it has flavors - much easier to consume!

2. Absolutely....
I rarely get a cold, but that is the best product I've ever used.
Plan some sleepy time, though. It'll knock you out.

4. Haven't tried the new flavors.
Prefer feeling sick to the old flavor though. That stuff is gross!

I used to take the Alka Seltzer Heartburn Relief, but it had 50% of my daily allotment of sodium. Since I'm also on blood pressure meds, I switched over to Nexium. However, I will take the A S Cold Medicine if I have a really bad cold because it does work. Day Quil And Nyquil are also effective.

7. The single best OTC cold medication
EVER! Works fast and well, exactly as advertised.

8. It's the carbonation - it gets absorbed faster than non-carbonation
I learn that from working at a bar. People who drank mixed drinks with carbonated beverage mixers (aka Rum & Coke, 7&7) would be affected faster than those who drank beverages without carbonation (like a screwdriver)

9. The most perfect product in history is the French bidet.

Nothing makes my cold go away so fast as a jet of high-pressure ice-cold water up my rectum.

10. Remember David Letterman's alka seltzer suit? He was dunked into a tub of water while wearing it.
LOL!

11. It really is awesome
but it puts me to sleep so soundly there is no way I can take it during the day. I need something that works as well that I can take on the job. Today, preferably!!
