Do zicam rapid tabs make you cough? when i take it, it makes me cough & somewhat acts as an expectorant. i have cough & cold symptoms.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Zicam: It does not claim to contain an expectorant. The nasal swabs caused troubles with smell but all products are still being used and rely on the benefits of zinc. All the best.
