It takes at least 2 weeks for the break out to clear up. I have herpes simplex on my finger and in the past years if I have had a break out I would have to double my meds during the break out and I would start to see improvement in about a week. I am not sure of your condition but do not expect results overnight.
Hi portugal 8 this is a very good and newer medication and most people see results within 2 or 3 days its also good to keep some on hand so if you have a outbreak or feel it coming on start it right away..
