I think that abreva works pretty good, but if you can get your doctor to prescribe you zovirax capsules it works GREAT. I work in a emergency room and one day I was getting a fever blister and the doc I was working with wrote me a rx for it and I took 2 pills and it ws gone. So everytime I start to get one or anyone in my family starts to get one we just take a few doses of zovirax and it stops it before it gets bad. As you probably know zovirax is a herpes medication and a fever blister is a herpes virus also and it works great. Also something I learned at a class I had about disease transmission recently is that a fever blister can transmit herpes to the genital area if there is direct contact...that is all I am going to say. |
