I don't think Cold Eeze is Homeopathic. I think it's zinc, perhaps with
vitamin C in it. Lemme look...

Yep. The basic one is zinc lozenges. Others have added stuff. Zinc can
help shorten the duration of a cold. I had very good luck once and only
once with Zicam and also those big fizzy tablets that come in a tube. Name
escapes me. From what I have read, the key is to take it at the first sign
of a sniffle.
