Zicam cold remedy products are manufactured by Matrixx Initiatives, Inc. These products are over-the-counter homeopathic medicines aimed at reducing cold symptoms.
On June 16, 2009, The FDA advised consumers to stop using several Zicam products due to the risk of a condition called Anosmia, which can result in the permanent loss of smell. Matrixx Initiatives has voluntarily withdrawn Zicam Cold Remedy Swabs, and Zicam Cold Remedy Nasal Gel from the market. The FDA warning also applies to Zicam Cold Remedy Swabs Kid Size, although that product has been discontinued. The FDA has confirmed that it has received over 120 consumer complaints regarding these products since 1999.
Anosmia a potentially dangerous condition as it limits the ability to detect harmful things in the environment such as gas leaks, spoiled or rotten food, or fire. It can also lead to the loss of taste.
