Alka Seltzer, do you drink it? (1 Viewer)

[Barry]

never tried it but have always liked the look and sound of the bubbles when on tv. Never knew it had aspirin in it. If you drink it, what for and does it help?

 

[In The Zone]

Plop plop 

Fizz fizz

Oh what a relief it is. 

 

[ShamrockPride]

I use the cold/congestion tabs when needed. Has always been quite effective for me compared to most other OTCs.

For indigestion Alka Seltzer now has the easy to take chewable (like mentos but Alka Seltzer). A lot better than drinking that stuff (which I have many times in the past in the 90’s mostly.....to prevent hangovers LOL). 

 

[Osaurus]

No

 

[Charlie Steiner]

When I have a sore throat.

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

Never. I didn’t know it was still a thing. Figured it went out with Brut Cologne and Mercurochrome.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

I grind it up and snort it. Reminds me of the good old days, minus the good part.

 

[fatness]

Definitely not as good as Fizzies.

The Alka Seltzer Cold Medicine is the ####.  Would rather have that stuff go bad in my medicine cabinet than get caught without it.

When I was much younger I used to eat the tablets designed to go in the water.  Yeah, I was a strange youngster...

Try it as an anal suppository. Puts a little zing in your giddyup.

Not my thing, but you may want to forward this suggestion to Stevie Nicks.

Indigestion. But there's better options

This.  It was the only thing that gave me a little relief from a terrible Covid head cold last week.

As others have said, the Alka Seltzer Cold is the best.  Works so much better than other meds. Doesn't taste the best, but the fizz definitely helps.

 

[DallasDMac]

I use it when I overindulge in food.

I used to dip into the dog's Gaines Burger supplies in my lad days.  Surprisingly good.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Especially good for Speecy spicey meatballs

 

[DA RAIDERS]

For heartburn, yes. 

 

[Jackstraw]

Absolutely. Settle the somach. Heartburn. Hangover headache. 

And the cold stuff when I have a cold. 

The shizzy.
