Why the change

What did you do to A/S? There is no 'fizz'. The taste is flat. It taste like poor fizzy water. You screwed up, guys..

New Extra Strength Alka-Seltzer is awful

The new extra strength Alka-Seltzer with the red stripe in the box is difficult to swallow, it is very distasteful. Please go back to the original flavor or please let me know where I can buy the original flavor, if it has not been discontinued.

Decent product, not super convenient

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I did like the product and I think these are great to have at home - helped me with my headache. But I just prefer the convenience of a pill form of pain reliever that I don't necessarily need an entire glass of water for.

Nothing happened

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was hoping this would be a fast acting pain reliever, but it didn't do anything. I tried on a few different occasions for a headache and body aches. I'm prone to migraines so I'm usually okay with it at least dulling the ache but I didn't get that with this. It tasted gross and I saw no change in pain.

Good product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn't realize that Alka-Seltzer created a product for pain relief, so when I had a headache and overall body pain, I decided to give it a try. It worked and was effective. My headache and aches went away pretty quickly. I will definitely use again.

Mixed Bag of Thoughts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you to Influenster for sending me this product to review for my honest feedback. I had no idea that Alka Seltzer made a NSAID! I recently started seeing my chiropractor for some back/hip pain and thought this would be a good time to test this out. I was super impressed by how quickly this worked. I think most of my paid was gone in 10-15 minutes. The con here is that it tastes awful. So bad, in fact, that I would use a measuring cup to measure out exactly 4 oz of water so I wouldn't have suffer more than necessary. There is a lot of packaging waste, but at the same time, it's convenient to throw the individually wrapped tablets in my purse. This is only useful if I'm somewhere I can get a small cup of water because the last thing I want to do is put them in my water bottle. I cannot with the leftover residue. Overall, it sounds like a bad review, but they worked so well and quickly, I would actually repurchase.

Alka Seltzer Original Effervescent Tablet

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] *** I received this product from Influenster and Alka Seltzer in return for my honest review. Pros: - Great size and value - Easily dissolves - Flavorless Cons: - Leaves the water a bit grainy. I have been using this product in conjunction with Epsom Salt Baths to relive the aches and tensions caused by working out. It does it job and does it well. I have no complaints and grateful for the fast acting effects.

Definitely works!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband is a nurse and has been loving to take these after he gets off work for his body aches. Me on the other hand, I like taking them because I like how it fizzes up lol. The overall taste doesn't really stand out to me but I can testify that it also definitely works for headaches (plus you're drinking water which might be the source of the headache)
