About cold sore treatment
Cold sores usually get better without treatment in 7 to 10 days, though antiviral tablets or creams can reduce the severity of symptoms, and they work best the sooner they’re started. Some antiviral creams are available from your pharmacist without a prescription; tablet treatment, which some people find more effective or prefer for frequent cold sores, requires a prescription. Your doctor will discuss which approach suits you, including options for managing recurrences.
Choose an eScript, paper prescription or delivery, answer a few suitability questions, and your video or phone consultation can be scheduled afterwards.
