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. • adults and children 12 years or over: – wash hands before and after applying cream. – apply to affected area on face or lips at the first sign of cold sore/fever blister (tingle). Early treatment ensures the best results. – rub in gently but completely. – use 5 times a day until healed. • children under 12 years: ask a doctor. |
