Talk:Bonjela

Speedy delete?

This article smells like G11 (advertisement) to me and needs a rewrite to be encyclopedic. However, my CSD template was removed as soon as I put it on the page. Why? Does Bonjela have some sort of cultural significance or something? --Tinctorius 08:24, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Not to the levels of Tylenol or other equally popular brands, but yes, it does. The article is in need of a little rewrite, but the current {{ad}} tag suffices to identify the current problems. In my opinion, it doesn't cut as a clear G11 - you may however want to to try AfD instead. Regards, Phaedriel - 10:20, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

In the UK it's pretty much the standard product, and well-known due to its lovely taste. 135.196.2.145 (talk) 14:35, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Initial sting

Would the initial sting produced when using Bonjela be worth noting in the main article? Especially since one of the things you're talking about is pain-relief and it may mislead people. —Preceding unsigned comment added by BlueStream (talk • contribs) 12:56, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Are you sure you're thinking of bonjela and not some other mouth-ulcer medicine? Bonjela is known as being very mild, so that you can even use it in small doses for teething babies- other mouth ulcer things (like Frador) list on the packaging that you'll experience "Transient smarting"(ie:burning agony) but Bonjela doesn't sting at all- the only thing that might hurt is the fact that you have to touch the sore area to apply it?Himynameishelen (talk) 15:05, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

seems to sting a bit to me. --87.127.117.246 (talk) 22:51, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

The original bonjela does sting for about a second when you put it on the ulcer, but there is a 'bonjela cool' that I saw in Boots, that is meant to be more soothing and not have the initial sting. Does anyone know anymore about this, or why it does/not sting? Also, a quick search turned this Netdoctor page, which at a glance seems very informative. I don't have the time now to incorporate info from it, so I put it here for others to do, or even me to do it later, if I remember! 86.29.76.37 (talk) 13:27, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Ah, I've only ever used Bonjela cool, so that's probably why I wouldn't know- however to be honest, it doesn't really seem that important a fact- I'd say feel free to put it in if you feel it's relevant though.Himynameishelen (talk) 21:15, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Oh, you mean that unholy agony that lasts for about three seconds? Yeah, might be worth mentioning I think. 93.107.72.121 (talk) 15:01, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Teething

Why is teething in the "beyond intended usage" sentence, when the packet in the photo clearly says 'for teething' on it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 135.196.2.145 (talk) 11:35, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
