It also offers comfort from headache, body ache, and muscular stiffness associated with colds.

Key Benefits
To use Vicks VapoRub 10ml for a cough, apply a thick layer of the ointment directly to your chest and throat. Massage it gently into the skin and leave your clothing loose so the menthol and camphor vapours can travel up to your nose and mouth. This acts as a topical cough suppressant, soothing your airways and reducing the urge to cough, especially at night.
No, you should never apply this topical ointment inside your nostrils. The active ingredients, including camphor and menthol, are highly concentrated and can cause severe irritation or damage to the delicate mucous membranes inside the nasal cavity. Instead, rub it on your chest or throat; the inhaled vapours will naturally clear the nasal congestion.
No, this product is not safe for infants or babies under 2 years of age. The concentration of camphor and menthol is too strong for infant respiratory systems and skin. For babies, you should look for specially formulated, camphor-free infant rubs, and always consult your paediatrician before applying any cold remedies.
You can buy Vicks VapoRub 10ml directly from Apollo. This specific variant is highly regarded as the ideal travel size Vicks. Its compact, lightweight jar fits perfectly into pockets, purses, or small first-aid kits, making it incredibly easy to carry for fast, on-the-go relief from sudden cold symptoms.
Yes, it is an excellent remedy for temporary muscle ache relief. The combination of menthol and camphor acts as a rubefacient, meaning it stimulates blood flow to the skin's surface. Massaging it into sore muscles, backaches, or stiff joints produces a soothing, warming sensation that temporarily distracts from and alleviates muscle pain.
When applied topically to the chest and back, the medicated vapours from the thick petroleum jelly base can last for up to 8 hours. This prolonged release makes it particularly highly effective for overnight use, helping to suppress coughing and keep nasal passages clear while you sleep.
When used as directed, side effects are rare. However, some individuals with sensitive skin may experience mild redness, a burning sensation, or contact dermatitis at the application site. If you notice any severe skin irritation or an allergic reaction, wash the area with soap and water immediately and discontinue use.
Yes, it is highly effective for steam inhalation. Add one to two teaspoons of the ointment to a bowl of hot (but not currently boiling) water, and inhale the soothing vapours to instantly clear a blocked nose. Ensure you never heat the mixture in a microwave or on a stove, as the petroleum base can splatter and cause burns.
No, Vicks VapoRub is not a cure for the cold virus. It is a symptomatic treatment designed to provide fast, temporary relief from cold symptoms such as a blocked nose, minor coughs, and body aches. It helps you breathe easier and rest comfortably while your immune system fights off the underlying viral infection.
The Vicks VapoRub 10ml price is highly affordable, making it a cost-effective addition to your daily carry. For the most current and competitive pricing, along with exclusive Apollo discounts or multi-pack offers, please check the price listing at the top of this product page.
