Polysporin® Cold Sore Healing Patch Reviews
#1 in Remedies

Description

Polysporin Cold Sore Healing Patch uses hydrocolloid technology to effectively treat the cold sore. The patch forms a protective barrier that contains the virus and enables fast effective healing.

Directions for Use:  Apply POLYSPORIN® Cold Sore Healing Patch at first sign of an outbreak. When the patch starts to detach from the skin, remove it and replace it with a new one until cold sore is healed. Patches should be used 24 hours a day. On average, the patch will stay on for approximately 8 hours. You do not need to remove the patch every 8 hours, only when it begins to detach.

    Polysporin Cold Sore Patch

    Tried this product because of the trusted name brand. It is definitely worth the price in as far as it prevents spreading and cuts down on healing time. The only downside is it didnt stay affixed very long.

    The application isnt very easy

    This product did disguise my cold sore somewhat , the nasty bugger was on my bottom lip and you couldn’t see it too much, as to what my colleague told me lol I guess it depends where your cold sore is that the patch either shows or not lol

    I found the product effective for me if I paired these patches with Abreva. Cold sores seemed to dissipate much faster.

    The application part though is a bit tricky , it has like these two tabs holding the patch together and you gotta like pull them apart or twist and pull apart to apply it to the affected area , but couple times I stretched out the patch and it ended up not sitting right on the cold sore lol so that would be a waste , and for the price of them and to waste these little guys can be annoying . It’s trial and error , I guess in the application part .

    Oh yeah if you’re going to be eating or drinking just be prepared to reapply another one because they don’t really hold up when you’re eating or drinking , unless it’s through a straw lol

    There's definitely a trick to using these.

    I'm not sure why cold sore products are so dang expensive, but this one is no exception. I find this product to be a wonderful addition to my arsenal of cold-sore fighting weapons. The thing I find most effective at drying up a cold sore quickly has always been rubbing alcohol. After I've applied the alcohol and let it dry completely I'll pop one of these bad boys on (carefully because they're pricey) and go about my day. They don't last well through eating and drinking unless you're careful but they definitely add a layer of protection between the sore and the outside world. I especially like them for my daughter because I can apply it in the morning before she goes to school and at least there's something helping to fight her cold sore throughout the day.

    fonctionne bien

    Avec les changements de saison et le rhume, j'ai souvent des feux sauvages a partir de l'automne. J'utilisais Abreva et cela me coutais très chère. J'ai essayer les petits timbres transparents de Polysporin. Si votre feux sauvage n'est pas trop gros cela fonctionne bien. J'avoue que la feuille ronde transparente n'est pas trop confortable, mais elle guérie vite et contient le liquide qui peux sortir du feux sauvage quand il guérie. Il reste plus abordable que plusieurs autres produits en magasin, mais mettra un petit peu plus de temps pour la guérison de 1 journée ou 2 environ.

    Pricey

    It definitely gets the job done. I wish it wasn’t so expensive though as this stuff does not have a long expiry time. It is very convenient compare to the ointment. I like to put it on at night when I get a cold sore. It’s visibly reduced by the morning.

    Effective, but too expensive

    Not sure if it helps to heal faster, but definetely makes you look less gross. No one can tell if you're trying to hide a pimple or a cold sore. ;)
    It is quite expensive though...

    Pas une médicament mais une bonne protection

    Il s'agit d'un bon produit afin de couvrir le feux sauvage et ainsi éviter qu'il se répande. Je l'utilise le jour, sous le maquillage, et la nuit afin d'éviter de la gratter dans mon sommeil. Lorsqu'on le porte, le feu sauvage pique moins et il est plus facile de se concentrer dans les tâches quotidiennes. Le seul hic est le prix: c'est environ 25$ pour 18 timbres.
