Denavir (penciclovir) for Cold Sores "I get cold sores frequently in fall and winter. Denavir is wonderful! When I use it at the first sign, sometimes it doesn't even develop into a cold sore. I always keep this on hand."

Denavir (penciclovir) for Cold Sores "Finally a medication that truly delivers on its claim! Clears up cold sores within a day or two if caught early, otherwise, still provides relief and shortens duration. This stuff works!!!"

Denavir (penciclovir) for Cold Sores "Denavir, for me, does not work. It does not stop the cold sore formation and does not heal it quickly. It has taken nearly 2 weeks for my cold sore to heal."

Denavir (penciclovir) for Cold Sores "It is the only thing that works quickly and without side effects like stomach pain. On my last overseas trip, I was able to pick up two small 2 gm tubes for $18 each instead of $900. Crazy."
