cold sores
"Had cold sores since childhood, and they were always a pain. Usually they coincided with a recent illness or, most often, the seasons changing. Before, they were guaranteed to last me a week and a half, and always produced the most disgusting results. With these, I take two pills once I get the initial tingling and the beginnings of swelling, then two more twelve hours later. The blister, at its largest, will last maybe a day before immediately starting to recede. By day 2, it's hardly noticable, and usually around day 3 a scab shows up. Keep in mind, that's the WORST case scenario. Sometimes, I can get these pills quickly enough during the tingling phase that I get hardly anything.
Absolutely ask your doctor if they'll prescribe these!!"
