Does help with the cold sore symptoms, but I found it a tad hard to apply and get it to stay on. Really didn't like the looks when it was in place. Doesn't always stay in place when cold sore is in an the corner of your lip

I knew this product wouldn't work. I get cold sores monthly. I take prescription pills to help stop them from coming and also have used everything under the sun for when they do come. If prescriptions don't work, why would something as simple as this? People who are reviewing this with a positive note are lying to try and get a free product. Should be ashamed of yourselves!!!

They are a little large, I find it pops up if there is moisture from my mouth able to get into it. I cut mine in half and they last all day, they're great.

Not a bad protective product. As someone who has used a variety of cold sore relief products I was curious about this. However I didn't find it sped up healing time.

The product provides a protective cover to allow comfort while healing.

The application is a little fussy and I sometimes wished they were a little smaller to accommodatensure.

Overall decent product to use in conjunction with other remedies.

So the great thing about this product is that NO ONE knew i even had it on! It worked wonders.
Its a fast action and very safe product for anyone to use

When winter comes I'm always prone to cold sores and when these healing patches came out it was the best thing ever. They speed up the healing process and hides it well so it doesn't even look like I have one at all. The only downside to them is applying them can be a bit of a hassle, especially if its closer to the inside of your lip, it doesn't stick well. But other then that I always keep these around

I use these when ever I get a cold sore. it doesn't completely hide it from everyone like the ad says but they work amazing.

I have tried Polysporin Cold Sore Healing Patch and it is the BEST. I have told all my family and friends about how excellent this product is.

Easy to use, reduced the swelling and redness. Overall, I would purchase this again.

the only way to treat cold sores quickly and effectively is to get a prescription for Valacyclovir (Valtrex) (costs about $5 with drug plan). Within in first 24 hours of taking paint is gone and second day blister is almost healed. Over the counter remedies take 1-2 weeks to heal a cold sore. a patch just looks funny on your lip and you have to keep changing it. its ineffective and not worth money.
