What dosage of lysine is best for herpes outbreaks?

I am just starting to take l-lysine as a friend suggested it. I am two weeks into shingles, started getting two cold sores and a terrible sty on the one eyelid. I am thinking I could use this tablet more than once a day on a regular basis?

L-Lysine dosage recommendation?

I just bought 1000mg L-lysine to take for my cold sore out breaks, the bottle says do not ‘exceed recommended intake’ which is 1 tablet per day. Across the internet it says can take up to 3000mg, and is best for cold sores, can I go with that advise or stick to the bottle?
