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.

    I am plagued with cold sores not only are they painful they are horrible to look at, I have wasted a lot of money on these products and this one was worth. It really covered it and prevented it from really growing, it also protected it from the outside world! Its worth the money I will buy again.

    Not only did it remove the cold sores on my lips, it prevented them from leaving any marks or scars on my lips. I would definitely use this again!

    This is a great product! Over the years I have tried every product and crazy old wives tale ideas out there. This will be my go-to product from now on. It worked quickly to heal my cold sore in no time. It also kept it covered and protected and hidden. I found that it really helped to stop me from touching and picking at it, which is what really slows healing for me. I found they lifted off a bit at times, but for the most part they stayed on well regardless of what I was doing. They are a bit pricey, though they can be found on sale. Despite the price, they are worth every penny as they are very effective.

    These are very effective, truly reducing the time it takes to get rid of a cold sore, but can be tricky to keep in place. I found that by making sure the skin was very dry prior to applying they stayed in place better. Compared to any other treatments, my cold sore disappeared about a week earlier, so worth it to me.

    I had seen an ad on TV for Polysporin Cold Sore Healing patch and thought what a great idea. Jump ahead a few weeks and I get a sore on my top lip and have to work in the retail food sales that day. Remembering the TV ad I went straight to my local Rexall pharmacy and asked if they had this product. They did not. I then went to Pharmasave and they did have this product. Oh happy day. I love my local Pharmasave. I quite happily paid the cashier, opened the packeging and popped the pad over my sore I worked a full 8 hour shift with a lunch break and 2 coffee breaks and didn't have to replace the patch. It was discreet, it tingled, it soothed, Hell It worked!. I have a pack in my purse and a pack in my bathroom. Amazing! worked like magic!. and I swear, healing time was cut in half. Exactly what I have come to expect from Polysporin brand products.

    Great product! Easy to use and very effective. Doesn't sting like Abreva and works much better. Love that you just put it on and then can apply makeup over top. No one even notices it's there. Only downfall is it is a bit on the pricy side.

    I used these patches last winter for the first time from Shoppers as soon as I started feeling the that a cold sore was coming on. The patches blend in well and are well camouflaged. I used only 5 of the 15 patches on the cold sore. The cold sore basically didn't reach full size and was suppressed. The cold sore was gone within the week! I will buy the product again. However, it is quite expensive, so I keep an eye out for sales.
