BTW, Zovirax does seem to work, at least in the sense that it drastically increases the time between evident cold sore outbreaks. Prior to oral Zovirax I might have experienced cold/lip sores as often as twice a year. After treatment of even two outbreaks, the relief period increases to the point that my prescription now expires between outbreaks (ie, once per 2.5 yrs).
Have you tried Abreva yet? It's otc and I think very cheap.
