Yesterday was Cough Drop Day

Check out these old school commercials and pick your favorite!

The decision comes a month after a U.S. Food and Drug Administration panel of advisers said oral over-the-counter medicines made with phenylephrine don’t actually work to clear up congested noses when taken orally.

Let’s start with Ricola!

I’m so glad I can get back to playing whatever these things are in a giant field in Switzerland!

Then there’s Luden’s!

I’m so glad they came up with a song that should have been on Broadway about having a sore throat!

Finally, for your consideration, there’s Halls!

This guy looks like he’s about to get beamed up and share his cold with some lady in a bakery!

Hopefully you don’t need one right now but I hope you enjoyed Cough Drop Day!
