Usage and Instructions
Vicks VapoRub is effective if applied to the skin, or mixed with hot water and inhaled as a steam.
Rub Vicks VapoRub liberally on the chest, throat and back. Cover whole area for maximum effect. Leave nightclothes loose to allow vapours to be inhaled easily. For children (infants and babies over 6 months), apply lightly to chest and back. Rub in gently. Leave clothes loose for easy inhalation.
Alternatively melt two teaspoons of Vicks VapoRub in very hot (not boiling) water. Inhale the medicated vapours for 10-15 minutes. Caution: Never re-heat the mixture.
Warnings
Do not use Vicks VapoRub on babies under 6 months of age. Do not swallow or place in nostrils.
Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking this or any other medicine, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Side Effects
Occasionally, Vicks VapoRub can cause a temporary reddening of the skin in the region where the product has been rubbed in. This is quite normal, and the "skin reddening" fades and disappears within hours without any further action. If the reddening does not disappear or if you notice anything else unusual, or have any unexpected side effects, please talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
