Dr. Epstein, my point was exactly what you say: Zincum gluconicum is "the same material" as that found in Cold-Eeze. That's why I'm comparing the products.

The argument that Cold-Eeze delivers a "less concentrated" supply of ionic zinc to the site of action than does Zicam is completely unproven. If you believe the published research, Cold-Eeze delivers ample amounts of ionic zinc.

It would be nice to hear from people who've used the product whether Gel Tech's claims about how long a spray bottle of Zicam lasts are accurate. I've read the packaging directions, but I don't always believe what I read.

About dental gums, well, you still have nothing to offer but insults.

Quigley's market success has thus far been extraordinary. Even so, its stock is now flirting with the sub $5 mark. Unless you're just interested in playing a speculative pop in GUMM's stock, you need to consider the way initial sales don't reflect sell-through but mere channel filling. If you look at Quigley or CNXS (the Breathe-Right people), then you will see how channel-filling sales can prove misleading.

Finally, I find the tone of your comments insulting and childish. You can't make GUMM's stock go up by being an ass to me. You might as well try to be cordial to someone who's helping you think about the risks of your investment.
