How Vicks VapoRub Pocket Pack Works
Vicks VapoRub works by releasing vapors of menthol, eucalyptus oil, and camphor, which stimulate sensory nerve endings in the nose and chest. This action relieves nasal congestion, eases breathing, and provides a soothing sensation during cold symptoms, making it ideal for both adults and children when used externally as directed.
