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.

    Sometimes I find that the cold sores that are closer to the inside of your mouth, the patches will come off easier. However I find when putting them on right before bed helps a lot as I don't move my mouth causing the patch not to become wet. Therefore it doesn't come off as easier. During the day I tend to put it on after I eat breakfast then change it during each meal to make sure it stays on nice and right. Overall the product works well and the sores heal quickly. With the sores that are further away from my mouth the patches does stay on for long hours and with some lipstick over it you don't really see it.

    This is a great product. I found that it worked faster than some other creams. Liked how it hid my little sore. No mess!

    I'm not sure if I would recommend these or not. I think they did the job (my cold sore went away faster), but they are not invisible and makeup cannot cover it up. I found them to be noticeable on my face.

    I do not suffer from cold sores but my boyfriend does. He used these patches and found that they did not adhere well to the cold sore. He also felt that they actually made the cold sore worse by keeping it moist and not allowing it to dry out and heal.

    I have tried other cold sore cream and none have given a faster relieve than Polysporin cold sore healing patch I highly recommend this to family and friends, actually a co-worker recommended this to me when I told her I couldn't find something that would give faster relieve. So happy she did.

    I bought this in hopes of getting my cold sore to quickly disappear. Did it work? Yes. Was it quick? Nope. I bought this on a Thursday evening because I was hoping to get rid of it before heading back to work on Tuesday. It definitely sped up the healing process of my cold sore because after the first two days the cold sore kind of exploded? (TMI sorry) and then it kind of stayed wet for a day or two more. Slowly it started to scab and then it was healed fully by Tuesday-Wednesday. Would I repurchase again? Maybe, but its a pretty pricey product. I changed the patch at least twice a day. I woke up and changed my patch from the night before and then I changed it whenever I felt it was getting too loose. I guess in a way its better than applying oil on your lip all the time. It did an okay job making my cold sore invisible, but the patch was noticeable up close of course. I probably would use this over the ointments because it stops bacteria and other stuff from getting into your cold sore and allows it to heal in peace.

    I was a little skeptical about it. It did work but it wasn't as fast as I thought it was going to be. It was easy to apply though and wasn't as messy as putting on a dab of white cream.
    Plus the polysporin brand price tag was quite steep... though any cold sore cream is around the same amount.
