🩺 Clinical
Vicks VapoRub is an over-the-counter topical ointment containing three aromatic ingredients: synthetic camphor, eucalyptus oil, and menthol. These ingredients are typically used in chest rubs and similar products for their warming and cooling sensations on the skin. The product is applied directly to the chest and throat area. This is an OTC monograph drug, meaning it is made according to FDA's established rules for this category of product.
