About Oscillococcinum®

Flu-like SYMPTOMS? Respond with Oscillo from the very first sign !

Some people tend to lump these terms together, thinking that they refer to the same illness. However, flu-like illness and flu are actually two different sicknesses. Their causes are not the same, they do not last for the same amount of time, and the symptoms are similar but less severe. We need to learn how to distinguish between them for optimum treatment.

You have slight muscle aches and pains while you have not done any physical exercise.
You are abnormally tired.
You shiver without getting really cold and feel a sense of discomfort.
You have headaches, more or less strong and lasting.
You have moderate fever: around 38 °C

How to take it?

Oscillococcinum® is simple to take: Dissolve the entire contents of one dose under your tongue. No water, chewing, or swallowing is required.

Pull dose out of tray
Twist to remove cap
Dissolve entire contents in the mouth

Take oscillococcinum as early as possible, as soon as the very first symptoms of flu-like illness appear, take 1 dose of Oscillococcinum® 3 times daily, for 1 to 3 days. If symptoms persist after 3 days, consult your doctor.

Unlike other flu medications, Oscillococcinum does not cause drowsiness or have known drug interactions. It won’t mask symptoms that may develop or indicate a more serious condition, which is especially important due to complications that may be brought on by flu. 

Oscillococcinum works best when taken early, so it’s helpful to keep it on hand to take at the first signs of flu-like symptoms.

If you do start to feel flu symptoms, keep Oscillococcinum readily available. At the onset of flu-like symptoms, take Oscillococcinum to relieve body aches, headache, fever and chills and reduce the duration of flu symptoms.

KEN REDCROSS, MD BOARD CERTIFIED, INTERNAL MEDICINE PHYSICIAN IN NEW YORK, N.Y. "I have several patients with several different medical illnesses and to be able to offer them something if they start coming down with flu-like symptoms such as fatigue or achiness and know that it’s not going to interact in the medications that I have them on — that’s a win-win for both me and the patient."

GARY KRACOFF, NMD, BS RPH JOHNSON COMPOUNDING & WELLNESS CENTER IN WALTHAM, MASS. "For the flu, Oscillo should be in everyone’s house. You should have a package of that before the season starts because you want to start taking it at the first sign of flu-like symptoms."
