I tagged all of you guys so I can post this, as I didn't see it in the thread. This stuff works damn near instantly and its made it so that future cold sores are just tiny bumps that never even erupt. Its been over a year since I've started using this stuff and I haven't had a single noticeable cold sore since.
Its expensive but its not hard on your kidneys like Valtrex can be and I believe that if you order it directly from their site you can get a rebate for the full price.
I prefer the second one now, btw. But both work SO FUCKING WELL. They can be purchased at Walgreens or Amazon too.
Thank you! You were right about expensive, but if it works, it's worth it. I purchased the moisturelock one from amazon last night (cheaper than getting it at Walgreens here in town).
