I can't believe some weird mix of herbal stuff and vitamins and can really fight off your cold so fast, but it does. It's really amazing. Take advantage of free shipping on orders over $25 and stock up because each tube has about 10 tablets and you are supposed to take one every three hours - so you will go through one of these pretty fast if you have to take it for a day or two. This stuff works miracles. And this is the flavor to get - tasty.

I love this product! I honestly believe that it's helped me fight off several colds. As soon as you feel that scratchy throat, itchy eyes, or sniffly nose...you just plop one tablet into a cup of water, let fizz for a minute, then drink. Repeat every three hours or so until the symptoms go away. It tastes pretty good too; something like a lemon-lime selzer. I like this flavor better than the original orange, but that one is pretty good too. And I swear, the stuff works! I also really like Zicam, but prefer this effervescent formula over Zicam's nasal gel. Try this, and see why stores can't keep it on the shelves!

I have used this product for over a year, and never got sick since!! Really works! There was times I felt like I was going to get sick soon, I took one right away, and woke up the next morning all refreshed and healthy. I also drank Lemon juice diluted with water, days after taking the formula which also helps.

Take one tablet every three hours as soon as you start to feel ill. Put the tablet into a little mug of water, let the tablet dissolved and then drink. The liquid will taste something like lemonade... it's not bad at all.

Twice this year I have used this product to ward off a bug and it absolutely works -- and works quickly! Usually by day two is when I feel perfectly normal and healthy.

And stock up because it sells out quickly in the store!

I was pretty skeptical about this product at first - but after trying it I discovered it actually works! You will need to take it when you first feel symptoms of a cold, and you may need to repeat a couple of times. I have successfully fended off several colds this season that normally last weeks!

A doctor perceiving "Echinacea" can perform over "Airborne" does not suprise me, but the facts are "Echinacea" has been proven to be: USELESS. A doctor perceiving cheaper forms of vitamins are available is technically correct; however: formulation is EVERYTHING and most vitamins esp. cheaper ones will not be absorbed at even a fraction of the dosage recommended.
I do wholeheartedly concur that being low in Zinc can and will contribute to illness, both viral and bacterial.
For those who have "taken Airborne and still gotten ill", every situation is different...I would contend if one's husband has a very nasty cold, "Airborne" was not formulated to protect you from your dear hubby's viral and/or bacterial infection if dear hubby continues close quarters with you upon onset of his infection. Common sense must prevail in all instances.
My family of three has taken "Airborne" for over three years with great success and yet we each experience the product differently: I actually take at least one "Airborne" a day FOR the Zinc and Potassium and Manganese, etc., because I am disabled by CFS with Fibromyalgia and I find without question the product helps me with my "muscle management" without the side effects I experience from vitamins. There'a a reason the product is a bit pricey: it's formulated for immediate absorption and that is a beautiful thing -- you are definitely getting your money's worth, especially when price is compared to prescription antibiotics. Honestly, when I have taken it every three hours I did experience some, shall we say, gastrointestinal effects -- but that is MY system. I guess I "stumbled" across this product and use it for myself for over-all maintenance.
For my husband, I have seen him take it every 3 hours several times and experience no discomfort whatsoever and remain well.
For my son, he likes to take it ("Airborne") several times a day and experiences no gastrointestinal effects.

Regarding the statement in a review that linked vitamin C to oxidation and cancer, if that is an accurate statement backed by fact it would have to be mega-doses of Vit. C, mega-mega doses. Vitamin C is water soluble, meaning excess will be excreted by your body.

On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being Best, "Airborne" is a 10+ and I am so grateful to find it at Amazon.com at such a reasonable price.

So, there you have it: I use it for maintenance, as does the rest of my family. Yes, I HAVE witnessed situations where we have to take it exactly as recommended to "ward off" illness and overwhelmingly we have far less rate of illness -- hats of to the creator of this product.

This was a great deal. 3 for the price of 1/1/2. I use these all the time, when traveling, at the gym, crowded places, or when I just don't feel 100%. Have not had a bad cold in over 2 years!!

We are big airborne fans. The lemon lime flavor is good and I like it better than the orange flavor. We use it at the first sign of a cold and it seems to reduce the duration of the cold. I've found that many people at work also use airborne. It's a great product. However, I have heard that sometimes it doesn't work too good if you take it too late.

What a great product...I have been using it since it first came out and I find that is does work! What was even better for the purchase of this product was to find a great deal at Amazon, which was 3 for $10..I then ordered enough quantity to get it shipped free and I also didn't have to pay 7.75% state tax!

Much better taste than the orange flavor. I have been using this stuff off and on for almost a year now, and have not really gotten sick at all. With a new baby and two other kids in the house all getting colds and what not, that is really something.
The price is about one third what the stores here charge, the only problem is that Amazon no longer will ship grocery items to Alaska, so I can not get any more...
