It seemed to work great for me. I started taking it as soon as I felt like I was coming down with a cold and I ended up with just moderate stuffy nose symptoms that never went any further into a sore throat or chest congestion/coughing or body aches. And for me, I usually always have stuffy nose followed by sore throat and chest congestion and coughing.

I take this whenever I feel a sore throat coming on because that usually that leads to a miserable cold. If I am consistent, taking it 3-5 times a day it makes the symptoms much less severe and they only last a few days.

Male, age 62, annual terrible upper respiratory and sinus conditions after it turns cold. The usual thing started, read about this as a "home remedy", ordered same day via Amazon, after 1st chewable noticed slight improvement, now after 5 (1 day) I am functioning and 80% better. Will see how the next few days go, but seems very effective for my body.

I've been using Umcka cold & flu chewables for the last 3 years every time I get any hint of a cold or sore throat- Umcka chases the symptoms away. The few times I did get ill, I continued taking Umcka, and my breathing was improved, head felt better, and cold only lasted a few days instead of weeks like it used to. With all the traveling I do- Umcka is hands down what I rely on.

No more steroids, inhalers or doctor visits. Suffered two and a half years. Unable to work during that time. One month of use and noticed remarkable difference. three months and was doing pretty good and six months later I was working part time. A year later working full time and getting along pretty good. Not perfect, but a lot better than all the meds the doctor had me taking.

Had a cold with bad bronchitis and before I was over the cough I started getting another cold, went and bought this and after second dose I started feeling better and all the nasty cold snot starting coming out. It made me not feel sick anymore. I highly recommend this product.

I tried Umcka and expected it to be a basic herbal 'nothing': to my surprise it is very helpful. Good decongestant and expectorant, and soothing to the throat. Did not make me feel drowsy or agitated, only side effect I noticed was that where my throat was sore became a bit numb (careful of those with swallowing problems?) I am taking the bottle to my Doc and telling him about it.

I had a very sore throat, nasal drip down back of my throat and my head felt clogged. I was not getting any relief from sudafed or allergy meds so I tried UMKCA. Unbelievably, I felt some relief almost immediately. I have been taking it for 2.5 days and feel so much better.

This has been fantastic for me. I had many sinus infections before using. Now I only have mild 2-3 day colds. I haven't missed a days work in two years and I am a preschool teacher exposed to many colds and germs.
