DEAR DR. GOTT: I consider Vicks VapoRub a wonder drug because I have used it successfully in many ways. However, I have found that store brand versions work just as well. I use Wal-Mart’s Equate medicated chest rub instead of Vicks VapoRub. It costs less and works just as well.
I have used it for nail fungus, athlete’s foot, jock itch, and various insect bites and stings. No medicine cabinet is complete without it. Thanks for recommending it in the first place.
DEAR READER: If the store brands work as well as Vicks, so much the better. Thank you for the tip.
To give you related information, I am sending you a copy of my Health Report “Compelling Home Remedies”. Other readers who would like a copy should send a self-addressed, stamped number 10 envelope and $2 to Newsletter, PO Box 167, Wickliffe, OH 44092. Be sure to mention the title.
