is it like vicks inhaler

Sorry. I've never used the Vicks inhaler. This Olbas really works great though. It's the size / shape of a Chapstick that you just take a big sniff of in each nostril and Wa La! You can breath again. Great for travel too.

Not sure if you mean SIZE or SMELL. The size is similar in size to the Vicks inhaler. The smell is completely different. It smells like a combination of menthol and peppermint. I actually did not discover the Olbas inhaler until about 2 years ago. Once I used one I knew I wouldn't be interested in returning to the Vicks product. I really like the smell of the Olbas product compared to the Vicks and would not hesitate to recommend it. Regards EK

It's not. Vicks is medicated and should only be used for a short period of time or you'll get a rebound effect. Olbas is essential oils based and can be used year round.

I've never used Vicks but Olbas is the best out there . I've been off Nasonex for 8 months now & I'm only using Olbas. Worth the money. Hope this helps!

There are a few I got an extra pack for like 3.50 and I had plenty to spare. I think it comes with like 5 Refill Pads for Car Scenter Diffuser/ Scent Ball Diffuser (20) I have to be honest with you though I have found that the vicks scent warmers at walmart Work just the same or where ever there is a pharmacy work just as well and are easyer to put above the floor level where plugs are located. Then you just get the scent pads and you are good to go. If you dont mind it being at floor level it is fine. I just dont think it makes it smell as good as being up higher.

It is specifically identified with the "VICKS" logo. It is (per the inhaler) "Dist. by Procter & Gamble, Cincinnat, OH" who now evidently bought into the "VICKS" name. No country of origin is shown, so it's unlikely it's a USA product. P & G should stay with laundry products if this is an example of their diversification. They've apparently trade-marked 'Vapoinhaler'. It might as well be a knock-off for all the relief it offers. It is totally unlike the 'Vicks Inhaler' I remember from20 + years past. Very little content rattling around inside from some kind of small strip of ???. Saveyour money. It is specifically identified with the "VICKS" logo.

I have really used this with the Vicks product. Just warm mist. I have found that my kids are better in the morning than without it. Makes a big difference. The first sign of colds we run it. Have been very happy with the results. So in short yes. I think it does.

No but it works the same and is much less expensive!! Buy the mist spray if using for topical anesthetic for injections

I purchased a box of Vicks Vapo Inhalers through Amazon. They were shipped from India. They had no safety seal, were poorly packed, and were not made with the usual Vicks quality, even though the label said they were made by Proctor & Gamble. I phoned P&G and were told they have no manufacturing plants in India. I passed this on to Amazon -- not sure why they are still allowing this product to be sold. What I received doesn't have L-Desozyephedrine on the label, but then again, they claim to be Proctor & Gamble and aren't -- so except for the one reminder I kept (reminds me that Amazon needs help in the quality control dept), the rest of the box went in the trash! Check. If the product is shipped from outside the US, I wouldn't buy it!

Inhaler and package state ; Dist. by Proctor and Gamble Cincinnati OH. Also there is a "R" in the Vicks logo. both on device and on the package.

I use a Vicks waterless vaporizer for my kittys' respiratory problems. I put kitty in a crate with the little vaporizer w/medicated pads and cover crate with a towel. The pads are eucalyptus and within minutes the crate and surrounding area is scented with a soothing, medicated aroma. All of the kittys needing this therapy almost immediately fell asleep and rested calmly. I like the waterless vaporizer because it is essentially accident proof. I hope your dog recovers completely.

It is pretty simple and should only be used if you understand water & electricity: I can't remember if unit came with instructions but there is only one place to add water and whatever aroma therapy oil you wish, then you attach plastic inhaler piece. Caution steam is very hot, use caution always : )

Not really. The atomizers are still produced by Nephron, under the brand name EZ-Breathe. This particular product is discontinued. The refills are very available and will work with the Asthmanefrin starter kit and the EZ-Breathe atomizer. Breathe easy.

Accel is not floral. Not lemony. Not a typical fragrance-added cleaner. With that said, it does have a scent, especially for those who are sensitive to smells. In fact, Accel triggers a migraine whenever I use it. But it is so powerfully effective at eliminating ringworm that I strongly recommend it.

I can't make a comparison with the Mypurmist inhaler as I haven't tried one . I can say though that I have have been using the Mabis for a few months now and it performs very well , given my goal was lots of steam and the ability to use tea tree oil and the Mabis does this amply I can't see what different steam would be like ?The Mabis puts out pretty hot steam after a while but I don't mind that . If the steam gets too hot I just turn it off at the little on/off switch on the cord so no problem there . Good luck which ever way you go .

YES, and in inhalers too. I use mine in a PurMist inhaler. I mix it with a little water and it works just fine

Hi Edith, no, its actually a dupe of the Lancome Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate. The ingredients are the same, and I have actually used both and they work the same.

Yes. exactly the same & scent is exactly how I remembered from the one I purchased from Victoria's Secret.
