Abreva is one such cold sore medicine, which has as its active ingredient 10 percent concentration of docosanol, which naturally occurs in many foods in low doses. One of the benefits of Abreva is that it is available over-the-counter without a prescription and if used in the early stages of an outbreak has been demonstrated to have an effect on cold sores, although to a similar degree to the natural treatment it was compared with. In fact it is currently the only non-prescription medicine approved by the FDA for reducing the healing time of cold sore symptoms.
One of the claimed advantages of Abreva is that not only does it help reduce inflamation and irritation, but it is absorbed by the skin and helps prevent the virus spreading to healthy cells. It also has the advantage that cosmetics can be used over Abreva, helping to disguise the effects of the cold sore.
