Acts Two Ways at Once For hours after Vicks is applied, Its I ingredients, time-tested remedies, such j as camphor, menthol, eucalyptus. L thyme, and turpentine, are released H as vapors l>y the body-heat, and iylial- j ed direct to the infected airpassages. i loosening the phlegm and easing the J difficult breathing.
