11/12/2015


BRIDGEWATER, N.J. — Matrixx Initiatives on Thursday announced the release of the reformulated Zicam Cold Remedy Nasal Swabs. Due to consumer demand, Zicam has brought back the swab applicator to deliver the new plant-based formula, the company reported.


 


“At Zicam, we're dedicated to finding ways to help people feel better faster,” said M'lou Walker, CEO of Matrixx Initiatives. “Our new, clinically proven Cold Remedy Nasal Swabs were developed to help shorten colds so that users can step up and seize the day.”


 


According to Matrixx, the new swabs have been clinically proven to shorten the duration of a cold when taken at the first sign. They also lessen the severity of common cold symptoms such as nasal congestion, watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing and dry, scratchy throat, the company said. 


 


The new formula is homeopathic, zinc-free and provides cooling menthol and eucalyptus to help soothe the nasal passages upon application.
