i used zillactin for cold sores and it only take a day or two and the cold sore is gone. This medication has worked for me. I wonder why it's not available at CVS and Wallgreens pharmacy. I was trying to get two nights ago and 3 pharamcies don't have it on the shelves. I tried different brand but it didn't work like Zillactin.

This is the best cold sore remedy out there. Eliminates cold sore within 2-3 days. Does sting when on open sores and difficult to find in stores.

Best product available! Works best if you start using it as soon as you start feeling that tingle or itch. You can purchase it on Amazon.

I am suffering the worst flare up of cold sores I've ever had after running a 103 fever for 2 days. I applied zilactin immediately, and after two days the sores are dried up and crusty. While not the prettiest look ever, I do believe the cycle was hastened. When the sores broke open, the medicine stung very badly, but I think it helped.
