Best Supplement for Headache: Boiron Oscillococcinum for Relief from Flu-Like Symptoms of Body Aches, Headache, Fever, Chills, and Fatigue - 30 Count

Tami-Flu vs Oscillo (A Family Experience)

We bought this Family 30 pack in May 2015, and in the days of Jan 28 - Feb 3, 2016 my entire family caught the flu. It started with my wife who got checked with a nose swab and tested positive, she decided to take the prescribed Tami-Flu along with the recommended Advil for fever and Tylenol for headaches, but I also stressed she take the Oscillo. She was bed ridden for 4 days and with another day of headaches and back aches. Our 15 month old son did not take prescription medicine, only Oscillo and a dose of Belladonna 30c when needed for high fever, he was up and running around with so much energy in two days. Now take my case, I knew the flu was going to get me, we live in the same household and I was tending to them, so I started taking Oscillo (on Sunday) just in case. It so happens that my burning chest cough started on Monday night (first sign of the Flu), the cough continued through Tuesday afternoon, by noon my joints started hurting along with my lower back, by 3pm my muscles began to feel sore and an overall full body weakness started along with a fever of 102. I was lying in bed by 5pm Monday, I remained in bed all day Tuesday sleeping in and out, felt a lot of eyeball pain and headaches, body continued to hurt and chills took over. I made sure I was drinking (1 liter, 1/4 Pediatlye 3/4 Water) 2 liters a day to keep hydrated, lost my appetite and continued to run a 102 fever all day Tuesday. Got up to shower and brush and realized my skin and scalp were extremely sensitive to touch. Tuesday night I took one dose of Belladonna 200C for my persistent fever. I woke up entirely drenched in sweat Wednesday morning at 7am. My fever was gone, my eyeball pains became much much weaker, and my Headache was gone. By Wednesday 12 noon, the pains in my joints and muscles and lower back were gone, and I was moving around like normal. By 5pm Wednesday I was just coughing a wet progressive cough, and nose was clearing, I still looked sickly but had a normal level of energy with a greater appetite and ready to go to work. I was taking Oscillococcinum 3 times a day, every six hours religiously. My flu lasted a little over 2 days, just like my son, that's it

Works for flu/COVID – like symptoms. Why the price gouging, Amazon?

My family has been using oscillococcinum for years now. We take it at the first sign of chills, cold, scratchy throat, cough, fever, malaise, exhaustion, Headache, body ache, fever, sore throat. Sometimes, I will feel a chill in the middle of the night and I will wake up to take a dose right there and then. For years, I have introduced it to my friends, family, coworkers, neighbors etc and they all swear by this remedy. Since it is homeopathy, there is so little active ingredient that it is for all practical purpose not there in the remedy. I have no idea how and why it works but for me it is like quantum medicine. I was down with suspected COVID because I was exposed to a person who had returned from Asia the day before. I started taking the remedy as soon as I fell ill because I am part of a very vulnerable population in terms of age and other illnesses Thankfully, I was ok with Tylenol and oscillococcinum in 4 days and it was quite mild symptoms all considered. Bioron has not mentioned it but you can even take it prophylactically, so if you feel you may have been exposed at work or grocery store or will be exposed at work or grocery store, just take 1/4 or 1/2 a vial. I stocked up by buying several boxes of 30-dose each once I heard of COVID and flu becoming worse and I am glad I have more than enough. I would say though that it is shameful that Amazon is allowing this price gouging on this medicine. It is double of what I paid on it just few weeks ago. Shame

It's NOT a placebo. It works!!

This product has been downplayed online as a placebo. I tried it anyway and now I always keep a box in my cabinet. It's a great help for both colds AND the flu and will knock out a sinus Headache in two minutes flat. Five stars and I'd give more if I could

Homeopathic Remedy Got Results

I used this product in tandem with Sambucol Black Elderberry Cold & Flu Relief Tablets 30 Count, Homeopathic Remedy for Temporary Relief of Cold and Flu-like Symptoms. I caught the flu when I traveled to San Antonio to watch my grandson graduate Air Force boot camp. It was a fast-paced trip, and by the time I got home I felt run-down. The next morning I woke feeling worse than I have in a very long time. I began taking these two homeopathic remedies because I'm familiar with homeopathy and prefer it to taking drugs. With homeopathic treatment, it's important to remember to (a) start taking the remedy as soon as you can when you begin feeling bad, (b) take the remedy exactly as directed on the package, and (c) watch your symptoms back out in the reverse order they appeared. For me, that meant the Headache and fever, which was first to appear, was the last to leave. I have no doubt I got back to work as soon as I did because of these remedies

It works

Not being a scientist, I have no explanation for how this product, or indeed any other homeopathic remedy works. Having said that, I have successfully used homeopathic remedies for more than two decades for all manner of ailments within my family, and discovered this particular concoction perhaps 10 years ago. It seemed expensive, and indeed it is pricey, although this particular packaging is quite competitively priced. But the bottom line is that this product works. Whenever I have felt a cold or flu coming on, speedy administration of this remedy also speedily beats the virus. The flu or cold never reaches full blown proportions, usually saving me the Headache of any downtime at all. If, on the other hand, I have none on hand and cannot take the remedy immediately, I also find that even taking a dose after the flu or cold has bloomed is helpful. That is to say, the illness is of shorter duration and decreased severity than it has been without the benefit of this product. Again, I don't know how it works. But after more than two decades of usage of homeopathic medicine, I would venture to say there is a great deal more effectiveness in these remedies than most Western medical doctors would allow. And in fact there are some traditionally trained medical doctors, fully licensed M.D.s, who limit their practices to homeopathic treatments. Most likely, one cannot and should not try homeopathic remedies as sole recourse to treat serious diseases, for example, cancer, congestive heart failure or kidney disease. On the other hand, alternative medicine has a great deal to offer. There is a reason that drug companies send their research teams to the far corners of the earth searching for plants and herbs used by tribal medicine men and oriental, Hindu or Buddhist healers. Their concoctions have been used for millennia, and while they cannot cure everything, more often than not with common illnesses, they work. And so does this product for flu or colds, as I can attest from long experience with it

This stuff really works!

I bought this months ago. I bought my first pack at Walmart, then bought a family pack on Amazon. It sat in the closet for a while where I actually forgot about it. Then I started to get sick. One night I was so sick I was thinking of everything I had to help me feel better because sudafed and tylenol was not working. I remembered that I had this in the closet and "now we'll see if it really works!" I fell asleep and woke up several hours later with no Headache (something that had been plaguing me for days) and less overall congestion. Granted, I was still sick, but I definitely felt better than I had before I took the first dose So far, I've been taking it, now along with my husband...and I can say that it was greatly reduced my symptoms. When I get the flu, I'm usually down for at least a week and have trouble getting past the Headache. I haven't had a Headache since I started taking it. I'm four days and feel like I may be over this in the next day or so. I also gave each of my kids a dose when they started sneezing, I haven't heard sneezes from them since. My husband also started taking it right at the onset of symptoms and I can tell it's helping him because he's usually miserable with his bad sinuses...and he's sick but nothing to what he would be like had he not taken this. It really does work in helping to reduce symptom

I was a skeptic, not anymore!

I have struggled off and on with sniffles and flu symptoms since I had my son 4 years ago. And, I would often have to stay home from work at least once per month nursing the body aches, sore throat, Headache, and general discomfort. I was starting to think nothing would work. However, I swear by this stuff now. I tried this product a year ago when I was pregnant with my daughter. I was extremely disappointed because I thought it didn't work. Well, that's because I took it for a viral infection well after the onset of the bug. A few months later, my husband and I had sore throats and we both took a few doses of these immediately at the onset of the flu symptoms. Honestly, it worked so well that we were well but both of our little ones were sick. This never happens. Anyone with children knows that if the kids are sick, the whole household gets sick. I tend work myself really hard which only perpetuates sickness. And now, with two little ones, I don't take care of myself like I should. But, since I have gotten these, I don't get sick anymore. Period. I might have a sore throat for a day but it never gets beyond that because I take these at the onset. No more sneezing and coughing or sniffles. I keep them in my purse and take them as needed. Which isn't very often. But, I have only taken one sick day this year as opposed to previously when I would take at least one per month. I would totally recommend this product to anyone who struggles with frequent sniffles and flu-like symptoms like I used to. I have been able to take them while nursing my daughter with no impact to her since they are homeopathic. There are no drowsy side effects. And, I actually feel more energetic after I take them. And, I get the flu-shot every year but a friend of mine who is a licensed doctor never gets the flu shot and only takes these. This price is the cheapest I have found. Its a great buy. Get the industrial size since you'll want to have them on hand immediately

Not for the ‘Rona.

I don't think these did as much for me as other reviewers claim. I tested positive for the 'rona on Monday and started taking these the same day. I got progressively worse until today, Thursday. I am not homeopathic obsessed, so I did take them with Theraflu because I wanted to nip this thing in the bud. It's been a bad week of flu-like symptoms, but it could be worse. I guess it did help with body aches and Headache because after the first day I did not have those symptoms. It did not help with congestion, fatigue, loss of taste or smell, so if that's what you're looking for, this ain't it. From reading other reviews I am amazed at how well it has worked for others, so I will continue to take it at the first signs of a flu coming on (which I should have done in this case). I was desperate to try anything and this was what was available to me through Amazon Whole Foods delivery. I thought, "Oh, it's expensive and has good reviews, then it must work?" not always the case. But it does taste good
