I had a pretty small outbreak, but it was pretty inconvenient so I tried many folk remedies and out of frustration finally caved, went to my drugstore, and bought a 2g tube for $17

This product did not help relive pain, or speed my healing time.

My personal reaction was a quickly spreading sore and a tube of Campho-Phenique (which did a much better job).

This medication cost me about $15 at my local drugstore. It has not helped with pain, itching or discomfort. It also did not help with the healing time. Do not waste your money!

I used Abreva as soon as I got that first indicating tingle, applyed it 5 times or more a day as they suggest, and I got NOTHING!! It is terribly expensive here in Canada and was NOT WORTH THE MONEY! It did help keep it moistureized, but it SPREAD, which is the first time that has ever happened!

I do not reccomend buying this.

This stuff is placebo. It doesn’t work. I have tried numerous creams and lotions to help with the pain and itching from these cold sores. Go to your doctor. He/she will prescribe Zovirax cream. Now this works….awesome. You get more for your money and it clears me up in less than 3 days.
