Finally

Hey guys! I just got some questions for Ask Tempy! Go figure!

Here's the first:

"Dear Tempy,

How does Zicam® work?

- Snifflin' in Brooklyn"


Dear Snifflin,

So glad you asked. Zicam® is quite possibly the most misunderstood medications to date since Cipro. Basically, most colds start as a small virus in your nose. Zicam® is actual zinc that you spray right on the source of the cold in your nose to keep it from spreading. You know how when you start to feel sick it sometimes feels like there's a small angry animal in your sinuses and then it explodes into a huge monster in your head? Well that's because that is exactly what has happened. Zicam® can prevent that. That's how Zicam® works.
