Cold-Eeze

When you have the common cold, you want to get rid of it as soon as possible. But you may be concerned about using some over-the-counter medications. Instead, you turn to homeopathic remedies; after all, they have to be safe, right?

In fact, homeopathic remedies, such as Cold-Eeze, are not regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) until significant claims have been made against them. Therefore, it is a true gamble to use the products, though since its introduction to the market in 2003, Cold-Eeze has been a best-seller.

Cold-Eeze comes in a nasal spray form and is marketed by Quigley Corporation. It contains zinc, which the company states has been proven to reduce the symptoms and duration of the common cold. The Cold-Eeze makers also tout the safety of their product, citing a double-blind study they conducted before sending Cold-Eeze to the public's nasal passageways.

Regardless of the Quigley's claims of Cold-Eeze safety, many have begun to come forward after using the product. Those individuals are claiming that Cold-Eeze left a burning sensation in their noses, and they completely lost their sense of smell after using the product. Quigley counters those claims by stating that perhaps it was the cold that caused their loss of smell.

For those who lost the ability to smell (and taste) after using Cold-Eeze, Quigley's insensitivity to their conditions comes as a slap in the face. After all, the sense of smell is critical to a person's safety and possibly to a person's career. Take, for instance, the case of a chef who must taste his or her food. If Cold-Eeze has left him or her without the ability to tell if a dish is too salty, too garlic-filled, or too bland, he or she might be out of a job. Additionally, if a Cold-Eeze user can no longer detect odors, a natural gas leak in the home could lead to death.

We offer free consultation and representation to those with Cold-Eeze claims. In fact, you'll owe us nothing until we receive monetary compensation for you. It's a winning situation. Though we can't reverse the adverse effects of Cold-Eeze use, we can make Quigley pay for its potentially defective drug.
