Zovirax Reviews

I do not actually suffer from cold sores but my husband gets them all of the time and I am writing this after everything he has told me about Zovirax. I feel quite lucky that I don't suffer from cold sores as they can be painful and you've got to admit they don't look very nice. Like everthing there are probably lots of different treatments for ...  Read the complete review

For a number of years I have been a faithful user of Zovirax cream. It does, from experience, stop cold sores from appearing when you apply quickly enough. Sadly I am usually asleep when they begin, however I apply the cream immediately and it prevents it from getting bigger and spreading or replicating. I was without cream on holiday once and ...  Read the complete review

I am one of those unfortunate indviduals who has experienced cold sores all their life. Having said that you think I'd know better than to travel without cold sore cream! My review today is about the brand Zovirax as a cold sore cream and it's global reach. In 2006 I travelled with my partner on the Trans Mongolian Railway west from ...  Read the complete review

I have never actually had a cold sore but it hink this is completely down to Zovirax. I often get a tingling feeling near my lip and a lump that feels like it could be a spot (perhaps it actuallyis and that's why i haven't had one!). Anyway i'm pretty sure it is the beginning of what would develop into a cold sore. Whenever i get this ...  Read the complete review

Ever since I was young, I have always suffered from cold sores (and I mean suffered). When Zovirax first came out a few years back, I thought it was a bit pricey compared to blisstex, which I had used before but that hadn't really worked. However, out of sheer desperation after yet another break out and after trying the Compeed patches (which ...  Read the complete review

I hate cold sores! It's not that they're unsightly (although they are); I hate them because they're really painful. Just thinking, for example about eating crisps and catching the cold sore with the edge, makes me wince! The pain is worst when the blisters first come out, any touch hurts. I'm actually getting rid of one now, which encouraged me to ...  Read the complete review

Unfortunately, I am prone to the odd cold sore and one of the things I always keep with me is a tube of Zovirax. I remember as a child having to have this on prescription from the doctor, but in recent years, this has become readily available in the supermarkets and chemists. The tube comes in either a small metal tube or a pump..both ...  Read the complete review

One of the things I hate about this time of year is the risk of getting a cold sore as they are unsightly and the sort of thing tat always wants to make an appearence before a big party or social gathering and they can be a pain to get rid of. My treatment of choice is Zovirax cold sore cream which is a really effective remedy epecially ...  Read the complete review

Not an overly expensive remedy relative to some other miracle cures offered elsewhere, but generally disappointing results. Having suffered from cold sores from childhood I've tried jsut about everything, and Zovirax was prescribed by my GP. I'd disagree with the manufacturers claims that it can prevent a blister form appearing if used ...  Read the complete review

I suppose Cornflake Girl is a strange title for a review about Zovirax, but believe me, it is a very apt name for me when I have a cold sore because basically it looks like I've got a cornflake stuck on my upper lip. Cold sores - the bane of my life. Some people find that sunlight triggers them, some find that cold weather triggers ...  Read the complete review

When I feared a ...  Read the complete review

A cold sore is a form of herpes which is a type of viral infection, Zovirax is one of the best for viral infections, but the best time to use it is when you actually feel the familiar tingle of a cold sore. Once a cold sore is out fully it is not really any good, this was told to me by my employer who is a doctor. I will say it is ...  Read the complete review

I wouldn't recommend Zovirax to anyone. Firstly, it's very expensive for what you get, secondly, it doesn't work very well and can actually increase the "disaster area", and thirdly, there are several, far far cheaper, way better alternative treatments. So here we go... Zovirax costs about a fiver, ...  Read the complete review

Quite by accident I have stumbled on a 'treatment' for cold sores that (for me at least) appears to be even more effective than Zovirax. Cold sores (which most commonly appear on the facial area) are caused by the Herpes Simplex virus. This virus has the nasty habit of lurking for good in your system once you've contracted ...  Read the complete review

Since developing M.E., I’ve suffered rather too many cold sores, I can guarantee that when I’m feeling particularly run down or low, I’ll get one of those revolting itchy blisters that seem to take forever to heal up. A few weeks ago I wasn’t too well and was rewarded with THREE of the little blighters, all lined up on my ...  Read the complete review

Coldsores are, let’s face it, pretty unpleasant, and ...  Read the complete review
