Oscillococcinum

Yep, try pronouncing that one! On a serious note, I have had a sore throat and slight body aches for a few days. I have all my shots, and the nurse at school thinks I am coming down with a doozy of a cold. My husband is at CVS right now looking for homeopathic remedy for me and the pharmacist recommended this. I have looked at info on line and am waiting to hear back from my doctor but thought I would send this out there to see if any of you have used this. Is it safe? Does it work? Thanks!

    It's homeopathic, I believe it's for flu and really best taken at the very first symptom.  I've taken it before with OK results (took it while not pregnant, can't speak to it's safety while preg.)

    I've never heard of it but I just wanted to say I hope you feel better!  I had a terrible cold around 7-8 weeks, pregnancy aches/ms + a cold is not fun!

    I would stay away from any of the homeopathic/herbal stuff.  They have not been studied and tested like regular otc stuff.
