Directions for Use

Wash and dry your hands before and after use.

Dosage

The usual dose for adults and adolescents is a thin application five times daily for five days; if the cold sore has not healed after five days, treatment may be continued for a few more days, but a doctor or pharmacist should be consulted if there is no improvement or if symptoms are severe.
