Reviews for Acyclovir to treat Cold Sores

Review by Anonymous: User Rating:  
   
9.0

Zovirax Cream (acyclovir): When I feel a cold sore coming on (tingle) I rub it on and it stops the outbreak. Only thing is it tastes horrible; sometimes it's hard not to rub your lips around the mouth without getting some in.

Zovirax Ointment (acyclovir): I find this the only treatment which can nip a cold sore before it develops. If one does develop, it also eliminates the pain faster (2-3 days) than any other creams I've tried. I also discovered after more than five years of annoying outbreaks that cold sores in the summer actually came from sunburned lips. Once I started to completely cover my lips before spending time in the sun, they did not come back. Here, prevention is the key.

acyclovir: It is well worth the cost, decreases out break time and reduces pain and embarrassment.
