Warning: If a bottle prominently notes “Tasty Lozenges” on the front, and the instructions on the back start off with “Every pleasant tasting Zinc-Ease lozenge …”, then you can be pretty darned certain that “tasty” and “pleasant” will not cross your mind when sucking on one of those suckers.
(And, yes, Randy, I know, the fruity-flavored ones at Albertson’s are better, but this is what we had in the house.)
Actually, it isn’t just the taste. I haven’t had any luck kicking viral ass with other brands.
Even with the good kind that zinc aftertaste is nasty. For an amazingly bad taste try using mouthwash a couple of minutes after a lozenge.
Oh, boy! Sounds like a great way to start the day!
