how are they allowed to call this 'medicated'?

active ingredients:
zincum aceticum <<< homeopathic
zincum gluconicum <<< zinc

You have to add "all natural" to really seal the deal.

Zinc is is actually one of the only vitamin supplements to be shown in actual clinical trials to have some effect in fighting common cold viruses. It is the only one that has a scientific backing. Unlike vitamin c, echinacea, etc. I believe it is absorbed through the mucous membrane, however. So a lozenge or something that would coat your throat would theoretically be a better mech of delivery. Not sure these gummies are the best way.

The description is literally that it's homeopathy. It's just quack stuff. Mayo clinic says zinc's efficacy is inconclusive and there can be significant side effects for zinc consumption https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseas...q-20057769

There's been some studies that suggest taking Zinc will shorten a cold by 42%, but you have to take like 75mg a day for it to be effective.

Homeopathic remedies are often diluted to the point where no molecules of the original substance remain (e.g., 30C = diluted 1 part in 10⁢⁰).
This violates basic principles of chemistry and physics.

Not always, but so often the case when it's being sold as a product like this, you can easily forgive people for thinking otherwise.

The real problem with these OTC supplements is that it's easy for someone to take too much and potentially cause complications. Or it may interact with some medication they were prescribed by their doctor. And of course probably better than 99% of people taking supplements don't really need them.

You'd be so much better off if you just ate an orange and took a walk around the block every day compared to taking this shit.
