There is a cold medicine whose slogan is "just ask for oxy" or something similar. What is that medicine?

Question:

There is a commercial for a cold remedy/medicine in which an infant pronounces the very long and complex name of this medicine. I have seen it advertised in magazines, but I cannot remember the name and I have not seent the commercial for a few weeks. Does anyone know what I am talking about and/or know where I can get that medicine?

Answers:
The medicine that you are thinking about is a flu remedy which is available in healthfood stores and many drug stores. It is a homeopathic remedy which is specific for bird flu. It is spelled Oscillococcinum and is manufactured by the company Boiron.
It reduces the strength of the symptoms and turns it into a mild case of flu instead of a bad one.
It must be taken as soon as you start feeling a liitle off in order to be effective. If you wait untill you are really ill, it doesn't work.
