Cold Sore Treatment
Product Images NDC 49738-200

Herpes is a highly contagious virus that can be easily transmitted through simple actions such as kissing. Those affected should avoid touching their eyes and other parts of the body after touching a cold sore. AUTOINOCULATION can occur if preventative measures are not taken. CLEANIT offers directions for use and advises cleaning the area to be treated, although soap or other cleansers should not be used. BREAKIT offers a step-by-step application process indicating that after breaking the ampoule, the applicator should be saturated with medication. Finally, RUBIT advises gentle rubbing on the sore and the surrounding area and avoiding damaging the skin. Overall, users should follow the instructions carefully, discarding the vial after use, and keeping it out of the reach of children.*

This is a product description of a cold sore treatment made in the USA for Kmart Corporation. The American Fare single application cold sore treatment uses a unique patented applicator to deliver the germicidal medicine directly to the site of infection without the need to touch the sore with fingers. The product treats most cold sores and fever blisters in just one application and does not leave any messy creams or ointments on the face. It is comparable to Viroxyr, a popular brand, and comes in two vials of 0.6ml each. The text provides information about cold sores and fever blisters, which are both caused by the Herpes Simplex Virus. Occasionally, a different agent may be at play, and some people may experience occasional recurrences. The description also includes a customer service number to call for any questions or concerns.*
