Black Elderberry Cold & Flu Relief
Walgreens
Overview
This product combines Black Elderberry with other homeopathic ingredients for cold and flu relief. While Black Elderberry has some clinical evidence for reducing the duration and severity of cold symptoms, the effectiveness of the other ingredients (Bryonia and Gelsemium) is not well-supported by scientific evidence. Due to its homeopathic nature, individual results may vary, and it may not be effective for everyone.

Non-drowsy formula
Fast dissolving tablets for easy administration
The Bad
Lack of robust clinical evidence for homeopathic preparations
Individual results may vary significantly
Homeopathic medicines may not be effective for everyone
