so im gunna be flying this weekend, and ive decided to take some zicam 3 days before i fly and while im visting my friends. i just found out that 2 of my friends have colds, they will probly be over the colds before i get there, but i still want to take zicam. is it safe to take zicam even though im not sick?? i just want a boost my immune system, i already have zicam @ my house, so i dont want to go bye anything else, cause im saving my money for vaca. i was thinking about takin a product called ColdMD, but it says u have to take like 6 pills a day, and i dont want to do that. so please just tell me if it is ok to take zicam even though im not sick. SERIOUS ANSWERS PLEASE!!

Though this DOES seem logical zicam will not make you Immune to a cold before you take it...the great news is that Zicam IS one of THE best cold remedies so if you feel like youre getting a cold you should take it right away and you will feel normal again...Stcik to one medicine though the more medicine you take at one time the worse you feel and dont take it more than it recommends zicam is a good choice on your part but it will NOT put you in a protective bubble like state unfortunately...have a safe trip and I hop this information was helpful :-)

since zicam works only when you are getting the cold, i would take it with me on vacation, if you feel yourself getting some symptoms then take it, maybe you will be lucky and not get sick and not need to take anything. dont over load your body with medication just in case, wait till you really need to take it.
