Quantum Super Lysine Plus Cold Sore Treatment Cream - 0.25 Oz

I’ve been successfully using this ointment for years when I have an outbreak of shingles (not as severe as I’ve seen others experience). Works very well in controlling discomfort and dries up the outbreak quickly. Couldn’t live without it.

Very Effective for Chapped and Dry Lips

Update:December 2024 - this stuff is the most amazing stuff ever. Had another cold sore flare up and as soon as I felt the swelling I applied it. Knocked it out within the same day. I hope I never find myself without it. I'm going to check out the whole product line. *************** I don't know what makes this product so effective but more it is. I use this and the other Quantum lip clear and I swear it really does knock it out in half the time. I try to keep this on hand at home and if I travel just in case. Yeah it's still goopy and looks gross but just put on a little. Reapply as necessary. This is not the cheapest but it's not as pricey as the big name like Abreva which didn't do squat for me. It actually works for me. I highly recommend this product and/or the Quantum Lip Clear Lysine +. Same brand. I have no idea why it's packaged or labeled differently. They do have different "taste" and "smell" (obviously DO NOT ingest it on purpose). But both have the same amount menthol. Might have additional add ins. I don't know. I just know they both work. Get it. Have it on hand. It will helps you stress less.

This stuff is incredibly effective at preventing a cold sore from erupting and/or healing it very quickly. It works MUCH better than the name brand OTC cold sore remedy whose name begins with/an A. The tube is very small but its oil based so you only need a tiny bit for each application. The only negative is how messy it is. It’s very runny (think melted coconut oil consistency) and it’s clear. I recommend punching a tiny hole in the foil seal (with a safety pin or similar size tool) so it doesn’t come rushing out resulting in a waste of product. Press ever so gently on the tube onto your finger, then spread it on your lips. Works even faster is you get the SuperLysine Immune Support supplements from the same company. My cold sores never erupt if I use both at the first tingles!

Good ingredients.
