Dear Dale: I do not consider GUMM a drug rather an over the counter concoction not requiring a prescription. That doesnt bother me, hell, cough drops sell pretty well dont they?? Here is a very recent TRUE story. Last night I was coughing so bad I couldnt sleep. I got up in the middle of the night, I took two Zinc Lozengers and went back to bed. Within 15 minutes my coughing stopped entirely as did my runny nose. These were bought over the counter at a healthfood store. No prescription, no Drug etc etc. But they worked. Thats all that matters to me. To me the distribution set up discussed regarding Zicam far exceeds in value any scientific talk. If Walmart and all those other chains are taking on the product it will sell merely because it has the exposure. Am I missing something here?? JDN

You seem to have overlooked dozens of posts criticizing the "science" behind GUMM. That has been debated much more than the financials.

Now that is a joke...calling homeopathy quackery does not qualify for debating (or critiquing) the science behind ZICAM (forget GUMM you don't even understand that nuance)....
