How to Use ABREVA to Treat Cold Sores

Home

Think Tips

The medicine in ABREVA penetrates deep within the skin to heal the cold sore fast and shorten the duration of symptoms.

ABREVA® is effective through all stages of a cold sore but for the fastest healing, use it as soon as possible. It is especially important to be aware of early warning signs that a cold sore is coming, like itching or tingling, and to be sure to avoid close physical contact when you have one. Always use ABREVA as directed, five times a day for a maximum of 10 days. Follow the directions on the package for maximum effectiveness.

For Adults and children 12 years and over.
ABREVA should be used five times a day, for a maximum of 10 days, until the cold sore is healed.
Apply it directly to the 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. However, use a separate applicator, like a cotton swab, to apply cosmetics over an unhealed cold sore to avoid spreading the infection.
For best results, remove any cosmetics prior to applying ABREVA.
Wash your hands before and after treating the cold sore.

	As soon as you notice the first symptom (tingling, redness, bump or itch), apply ABREVA immediately.
	Continue applying it five times a day until your cold sore is healed. And remember to always wash your hands before and after applying ABREVA.
