User Reviews for oscillococcinum

so far so good

Take it whenever I feel a cold coming on, it kept me from getting sick as well as my wife. As for WebMD's claim that there's no study saying it's effective? I wouldn't want to be in their shoes. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5788925/

Beginning to experience flu symptoms: extreme tiredness, headache and aching. Taking one every six hours usually one is all I’ve needed. I wouldn’t be without it

I have used many times at the onset of any flu like illness and it stops it on its tracks. Much better than any pharmaceutical product.

Started feeling ill Friday evening. Tested positive for COVID Saturday morning- fever, aches, chills, headache, cough, sweats- the whole deal. Started taking this immediately. By the next day, my aches had subsided. By Monday mid-day, my fever is gone and other than feeling a bit tired and having a lingering cough, I’m soooo much better. For comparison, the last time I had COVID with these symptoms, I was sick 16 days. I have an autoimmune disorder and asthma, so things hit me harder. Can I tell you 100% that this medicine did it? Of course not, but I can give you the facts in my case and encourage you to keep an open mind and try for yourself.Read More Read Less

This is amazing stuff... have used it for years... it has a direct impact on your immune system regardless of what may be pulling it down. Ppl who don't believe are the ones who either don't take it properly or just prefer to disbelieve homeopathy... I'm sorry for them! I've cured many things with homeopathy ??

This "medicine" is NOTHING BUT SUGAR WATER. Learn what a 200k dilution is and then come back and tell me there is literally anything in the pills but water and sugar. I know it claims it used the rotting heart and liver and bodily fluids of a duck (look up what Anas Barbarie is) but then its diluted so much there is nothing but water left.

I’m not sure why people talk down on this stuff, there’s nothing to lose because there aren’t any side effects. You do have to start taking right when you notice symptoms is the only thing. Just recently I started feeling fluish symptoms and started taking this and it’s not 2 days later and I feel almost fully back to normal, this worked so well for me. I love how I’m not getting a bunch of chemicals in it.

I’m a huge fan of Osc. As others have said, IT MUST BE TAKEN AT THE FIRST SIGN OF ILLNESS! If you are already sick, this is unlikely to help. I take Osc prophylactically too. If I wake up “too tired,” or with a heavy head/sinuses or if I’ve been exposed to sick people, I take Osc. It’s easy to take and, again, works almost miraculously if you take it soon enough. I double up with Zicam if I’m not sure I’m fighting a cold or a flu. Even my father, who didn’t believe in any “hippy dippy” herbal or natural medicine swore by Osc and Zicam. I think WebMD has done Osc a disservice with its almost uneducated-sounding review of this product. It flies off the shelves because it works. When western medical providers act like homeopathy or naturopathy are useless, they do potential harm to medical practices which have been effective for centuries longer than many current solutions. Homeopathy and naturopathy are being required more and more for medical personnel because there is merit to these approaches. End rant. :-)Read More Read Less

I was diagnosed with COVID & the same day bought my first Oscillococcinum for use. It helped me immediately. I was very pleased!!!

I’ve been using Oscillococcinum for a 20 years!! It’s amazing and works well for me. Once I feel an onset of the flu like sore throat, body aches I start taking it. I then take it every 4 hours up to 3x a day. I feel it speeds up my symptoms. At around the 3rd day it feels like the worst day. But after that a couple days later, I start feeling really good. This product has helped me when I get the flu. Instead of being sick for 10 days or more I’m only sick for 4-5 days thanks to this amazing homeopathic product. Read More Read Less

You do understand that this product is a sugar pill, literally, along with some duck tissue diluted to zero. This product is a placebo, and anyone reporting positive results is showing the effect of a placebo, a well described effect in medicine.

Had a friend tell me about this product, took it within a hour of feeling flu like symptoms, starting feeling better within 5 hrs. Seems to stand true. Will continue using from here on. ??

This product is extremely effective if used properly, at the correct time. It can stop and reverse illness if given at the FIRST SIGN of any upper respiratory illness or flu symptoms, chills, cold, COVID, etc. I can get about 6 doses out of 1 tube. I don't take the whole tube at once. The pillules are tiny, but ~8 of them is sufficient for a dose. I just tap a few into an empty medicine cup. I also found that it is great for long haul COVID that just won't go away and I use ~ 8 pillules twice a day (am and pm) for that. It is important with any homeopathic treatment that you avoid anything but water 15 minutes before and after taking any homeopathic medicine. They need time to work. I also find that taking 2 doses 15 minutes apart at the start of the treatment jumpstarts the effect even faster. If this does not work for you, then you have something else going on and require a different homeopathic treatment or you didn't wait 15 minutes with a clean mouth to take the medicine. Also, you should not touch them with your hands, the medicine is sprayed on the outside of the pillules and so you don't want to contaminate them with your hands.Read More Read Less

For years I take a capful of the grainuals everyday at the beginning of cold and flu season through to the end of cold and flu season because I don't get the flu vaccine nif I start feeling sick I use as directed. I've never been let down

I have taken this and believe in it and have given it to my sons and husband for many years. There is something special about this and it has worked for us for many years. I would so recommend it because it is safe and it works!

In a rare occasion this can cause SEVERE allergy that it was exactly what happened to me. No I walk around with an epipen because of this little sh*t.

Trying product for first time and after major flu is almost over and it seems to be sweet pelets and no real medicine at all. Got it from a cold and flu section at a Rite Aide and thought I would feel medicine at work like other cold and cough, or flu medicines but just sweet tasting pelets and nothing of the kind. The Oscillococinum 30 dose by Bioron.

I'm a senior retired nurse diagnosed with ME/CHF 45 years ago, and I've no doubt to say I wouldn't be alive without osc. I don't consider it a cure for the many long infections I've lived through, but I will say that I couldn't have survived the onslaught of infections if osc taken correctly, as said at the very beginning of noticed sx, even unusual fatigue, WILL subdue the respiratory symptoms of colds and flu and recovery will be much quicker than if not taken. If one can subdue, as osc. does, the upper sinus symptoms, so that less gets into the lungs, you are already mounting a good defense. Read More Read Less

In 2002 I got so sick, day before my mom's funeral. I could not get out of bed . Fever and other extreme flu symptoms. My dad went to GNC and they said to take 2 oscilloccininum then follow directions. Next day I able to attend and speak at service. I worked in restaurant and have taken every time flu season hits employees and have not been sick for 22 yrs.
