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 bought this product hoping that it would cure the cold sore faster than the liquid. I had problems getting the patch to stay on especially if you need to take a sip of water. Also when makeup was applied, the patch was pronounced in appearance instead of being able to cover up. I ended up purchasing the liquid anyways to get rid of cold sore. Waste of money for me.

    Im not a fan of the polysporin cold sore healing patch, I find the design is horrible it was very frustrating applying the patch wasted 4 before I finally got the patch on. Poor design for such a big brand & way too pricey for this product.

    I had such high hopes for this product and the concept in general but this did not work for me. When I changed the patch it ripped my skin off making it bleed and it took much longer to heal. I won't buy again.

    I tried this product on a couple of occasions and it did not heal the cold sore at all for me. It just kinda made my lip soggy.

    I started using the patch on day 2 of my cold sore and I have not seen any improvement what so ever instead I think it got worse. I regret spending my money on this. I only like the fact that I am able to put lipstick over it to cover the horendous POS on my lip.

    I bought these for my mother who suffers from cold sores once in a while. She put one on and it kept taking the top off of the cold sore. Thus every time it would partially heal, it would get broken open again. Will not buy again.

    I found this product unhelpful. I am pron to cold sores. I thought this might help. It does not sit properly on the area it is supposed to. I found that it was uncomfortable and hard and painful to remove.
    I would not purchase this product again.

    Hi I get occasional cold sore several times a year actually and I thought I would give polysporin a try. Now I am not sure if it didn't work because of the progression of the virus. I was very disappointed and also the fact the you are covering the area with a sticky film. I found no relief with this one
