This is a description of Docosanol Cream, a non-prescription cold sore and fever blister treatment. It contains 10% docosanol, which can shorten the healing time of cold sores, reducing symptoms like tingling, pain, itching, and burning. The cream should be applied five times a day at the first sign of a cold sore, such as tingle, redness, bump, or itch. It is suitable for adults and children aged 12 and older, and cosmetics like lipstick can be applied over the cream using a separate applicator like a cotton swab. It is recommended to remove cosmetics before reapplying the cream to prevent infection spread.*
