This Cochrane systematic review of 24 clinical trials (4631 subjects) of the possible benefits of Echinacea products for preventing and treating the common cold concluded that there is, at best, weak evidence that Echinacea products are of much benefit. There may be some small benefits but they do not seem to be statistically significant.
