At the end of 2022, there was an increase in the need to treat cold and flu symptoms. This was driven by the return of socialising following periods of social distancing, increased hand washing and the wearing of face masks throughout most of 2020 and 2021. As such, consumers´ bodies were less prepared to fight viruses and colds, with influenza, and general viruses easily spread. The need for cold and cough medicine was very visible, with consumers having coughs that lasted for months.
