Answer 1

Absolutely, my wife & I have been using this product for about 8 years. We had been using homeopathy for about 20 yrs. When we start to feel akeiness, get cold sores, sneezing, coughing --we get relief that lasts Sometimes if it is a long duration, we still feel the surge of well being to a good degree. Some flu's don't give up easily. We do use conventential medicine also --cough syrups etc. aspirin. I do not feel that there is any conteraction with taking both, my wife does--she is on a special program.

Life threatening scenario--After conteracting strepp throat from my gymnasts at 47 yrs. old it led into septic shock syndrome- In a full coma for 8 days , paralized for 3 wks. ER for 18 hospitalized for 27 days--Legally disable since 1990.

About 1997, we started the use of "Oscill..." and found it worked. I never take flu shots--because I feel it is very chancy with my susceptability, We use "Oscill... and feel very secure. If I would get as serious as I was, I would not hesitate any use of strong anti-bio... for homeo... has its limitations as far as dealing with emergency life threatening situations.

Another case in point, When in Bar Harbor about 1985 - I got a kidney infection that would not let go. My wife was in contact with a homeopathic MD--who also was a GP. She was using a H. remedy for urinary problems, but I was not getting much relief. She contacted the "H" doc and he said she had the right remedy, but she was using the wrong dosage. When she adjusted the dosage, there was immediate "cure"--never came back for 7 yrs., when it did viola --relief --never had another incident. Homeopathy works, and indeed makes sense--be careful of any fanatisism with any medicine conventional or non-C

Hope this helps!

I use it when I actually have it on hand. I do have some stockpiled just in case. I am somewhat skeptical but not entirely. While you can buy it at Whole Foods, it really isn't readily available. Usually when I get sick, the last thing I want to do is run to a Whole Foods or health food store. You are supposed to use it when you first start feeling the onset of the flu. I can't say that I get over the flu any faster but my family swears by it. My mom stocks it and uses it for her and my dad.

Answer 3

it is homeopathic so maximum human beings allow you to comprehend it is finished BS and is not smart. As a nurse, even I admit the assumption of homeopathy isn't smart. besides the shown fact that, I even have been employing this product for the final six years. on each occasion I commence feeling under the climate I pop some Airborne, drink orange juice and take Oscillococcinum and regardless of trojan horse i've got have been given seems to vanish away noticeably immediately. final time I had the *actual* flu became approximately seven or 8 years in the past, I mean the style the place you experience such as you will die, then after an afternoon or 2 you commence definitely wishing you *might* die to end your misery. it incredibly is the style you comprehend you have the definitely flu as antagonistic to a pair non-particular virus - dying starts off sounding noticeably good. i are not getting flu photos the two, in no way had had one the two. So, 3 years in the past I have been given a style of flu for the time of flu season, feverish and feeling crappy yet took my airborne, orange juice and oscillococcinum and it only went away. perhaps it incredibly is a placebo result yet i think of it is very well worth the $10 to attempt it out besides.

My whole family uses it. Works for everyone but me, I have to use another type of homeopathic remedy. Try it is all I can say. The nice thing is it wont interact with anything else so you are still safe to use conventional flu remedies. The key is to take it as per the instructions on the box. If you miss a does it does not work as well.
