rets. There is info on it there and it's not something I would use after re=
ading that info.

Hi all,
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 With stuffy nose and flue symptoms I would use the
VICKS=A0 Vapour Rub available from chemists.
Moderator's note: There are some recent studies with young children, infan=
t to 2 years or so that show respiratory problems from using vick's vapor r=
ub on them. The follow up study used was the one in ferrets. It is now n=
ot recommended for babies as well. However, I do not know if it makes a dif=
ference if rubbed on or just inhaled from a vaporizer machine that they sel=
l in the US.
