Docosanol 10% (Docosanol Cream 10 Percent Ene 1)
Docosanol Cream is a non-prescription medicine containing 10% docosanol, which is effective in relieving symptoms such as tingling, pain, itching, and burning caused by cold sores. It is recommended to use the cream at the first sign of a cold sore outbreak, and up to five times a day for healing. Other important information about cold sores, such as triggers, transmission, and proper use are also included. Cosmetics like lipstick can be applied over the cream, but with a separate applicator to avoid spreading the virus.*
