Dan, Hank and all - When I first used Zicam, it took me a few doses to get the hang of it, too. I finally figured out how far the stuff squirts and now don't actually put the tip in my nose, just at the edge, so when it squirts into my nostrils it ends up in the right place. If it's getting into people's throats, something isn't quite right. I agree that they should revise the instructions to clarify this. -Eric

I've applied it three times now and I guess I'm getting the hang of it. I was careful not to inhale (just like Billy Clinton) and I did not experience any burning this time.

I should point out one more thing concerning the price of Zicam. Although I paid at the high end of the range ($11.99), what I was concerned with was the price of Zicam versus other cold remedies, zinc based or not. I may be able to buy Zicam cheaper at Walmart but I would imagine that I could also buy any other cold remedy cheaper too. It's the side by side cost comparison I was pointing out, not necessarily the the overall cost per se.
