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.

    Felt uncomfortable

    I had a cold sore or what I suspect was one in the corner or my mouth. This product claims to be invisible and able to wear in public but, it is definitely very visible. It was also uncomfortable to wear. I will be trying a different method if I get one again.

    Not what I was looking for

    I used this product during a bad cold sore outbreak. I found that I was replacing the bandage quite often. I prefer a cream but was interested in trying something new. Not my cup of tea but others might like it.

    Scrap the patch!

    As an avid cold sore suffer my whole life! When I tell you I have bad cold sores I mean bad! So bad they even go on my cheeks’ I was kind of excited to try Polysporin cold sore because hello a patch! It was supposed to help and work fast boy did it not do that, I found them sticky, itchy and there was no shortage or no difference in healing time!

    Disappointing

    As somone who gets cold sores frequently, I was excited about this product. Had a heck of a time putting it on only to have it fall off hours later. I would use it in the house but I certainly would never use it in public.

    Dud for us

    My husband tried this and it did not seem to work for him. I was hoping that it would as we have not been able to find anything that helps him, but sadly, this also did not help.

    Might be good for some but not me

    I'm prone to fever blisters so I try pretty much any new products. there was a good quantity in the package but they didn't stick unless I kept my mouth open, felt very bulky and heavy

    I dont think it works

    For an over the counter product, I think a lysine product is more effective. Prescription zovirax is the best. I found the polysporin patch annoying and peeling off. Also did not notice a faster healing time

    Not wow !

    Il fait le travail mais rien de diffèrent des autres produits pour les feux sauvages. Aide à guerir mais pas d'une façon rapide et souper efficace. le maquillage ne tombe pas à perfection dessous.

    Meh

    I get cold sores all the time usually brought on by stress, using too many facial products, thinking about cold sores etc. (I am very prone to them) I have had them since I was born pretty much and I have tried everything under the sun. I had gotten this hoping it would help but kinda made it worse. I made my cold sore larger and a lot more gross looking. It actually took longer for it to heal and I had to go to my Dermatologist to get medication for it. Crappy it didn't work.
