Acyclovir / hydrocortisone topical "Summary - If you get a cold sore, use Valacyclovir and Xerese ASAP and don't stop until it is gone!!! Details - My nose (area between the two nostrils) started getting red Tuesday morning. I just put Neosporin on it Tuesday night. I woke up Wednesday realizing it was a cold sore issue. I was out of town and didn't have the cold sore meds with me. I got Valacyclovir filled and immediately started taking 2 pills in the AM and PM. I then got Acyclovir cream filled (as Xerese was not available). I used that cream almost every two hours. I kept taking both drugs all day Wednesday and Thursday, even though for Valacyclovir you can stop after 1 day. I didn't want to chance it. I got home late Thursday from traveling and swapped out Acyclovir for Xerese because Xerese is 100x better. Results - AMAZING! All I had was a very tiny scar on Friday afternoon."

"I rate this a 10. This is actually an amazing product, so far, so good. It's quite pricey, but worth every cent. Saw improvement after 2 applications. Side effects were some tingling, excessive dryness in corners, and swollen bottom lip."
