Ever since I could remember I have suffered from cold sores on my lips. I get them at least 1-2 times a year. Most of the time they are triggered by weather changes or stress. They are not just ugly and an eye sore but they hurt too! They come from nowhere and grow into this sore that scabs and bleeds. Gross! I tried almost everything offered over the counter when this happens but nothing ever worked until Abreva came out. I admit I was skeptical because no one of the other medicines worked but I decided to give it a try anyways and I am glad I did because after using it I found that the duration of the cold sore is less than what I had which was 2 weeks. It didn't grow as big after applying Abreva on it and it wasn't as painful! I call it the miracle medicine!
I actually woke up today and out of nowhere there is ugly cold sore on my lip! I am sure from all the holiday stress that is why I got one! So my lip looks like this for now (yes this is an actual picture of my lip right now) - gross!
After applying Abreva I will feel relief from the discomfort and the healing process will shorten verses not using.
The best thing about Abreva is that I do not have to go to the doctors to get a prescription it's the only over-the-counter medication approved by the FDA to shorten the healing time of a cold sore, heals like a prescription without the hassle of getting one!
When you use Abreva at the first tingle, you’ll notice it immediately soothes your cold sore. The medicine goes deep into the skin to strengthen the cell membranes surrounding your healthy skin cells. It actually turns these cells into barriers against the cold sore virus — blocking the virus from entering healthy cells.
How to use Abreva:
Abreva is recommended for adults and children 12 years and over, and should be used exactly as directed: five times a day until your cold sore is healed, for a maximum of 10 days.
Remove any cosmetics prior to applying Abreva. Apply Abreva directly to your cold sore at the first sign of a tingle, redness, bump or itch for best results. If you wish, you can apply cosmetics such as lipstick over Abreva. And always wash your hands with soap and warm water before and after treating your cold sore.
To avoid spreading the infection, always use a separate applicator, like a cotton swab, to apply cosmetics to an unhealed cold sore.
Abreva comes in a tube or pump and can be purchased at any local pharmacy. Right now you can print off a $2.00 off coupon when you use Abreva.

I have used it, it does a pretty good job, but you just about have to put it on as soon as you feel the blister coming on.
ReplyDeleteNo, I haven't tried it yet
ReplyDeleteMy husband uses it when he gets a cold sore. It seems to do a pretty good job. He puts it on right away, when he feels he is getting one.
