cold sores
"As others have said, timing as well as pairing it with topical deanvir cream is the most effective way to deal with cold sores. Know and try to avoid triggers, which for me are: Peanuts, other nuts, seeds, sun, hormone changes or prolonged periods of stress.  Now that I am older (48) I no longer have a "tingle' phase, which makes it tricky bc I can go through an entire day and not notice anything and then suddenly there is a"spot' a little raised and slightly red above my lip. I immediately take 2g and apply denavir every 2-4 hours. This usually results in halting the development of a full blown blistered sore."
