Docosanol 10% (Docosanol 10 Percent Cream Tev 0 07 1)
Docosanol Cream 10% is a non-prescription cold sore/fever blister treatment that helps to shorten healing time and the duration of symptoms including tingling, pain, itching, and burning. It is for topical use only and can be used by adults and children over 12 years old. This cream should be applied five times a day until the cold sore is healed, and cosmetics such as lipstick can be applied over it. The cold sore virus can be easily passed on to others, so it is crucial to be aware of early warning signs that a cold sore is coming and to avoid close physical contact when you have one.*
