How many mg of lysine should i take a day to prevent cold sores? |
How many mg of lysine should i take a day to prevent cold sores? I don't think lysine will prevent cold sores. The only medication I know of that will prevent outbreaks of cold sores is Valtrex. It is intended for genital herpes, but cold sores are caused by the same family of viruses, and Valtrex stops colds sores in their tracks. None of the other treatments come close to the effectiveness of Valtrex, not the ointment Zovirax, and not Abreva or anything else. Ask your doctor about it to see if you would be a good candidate for the meds. My doctor prescribed it for me for cold sores about five years ago and after taking it only a couple of times I hardly ever get a cold sore any more, and I was having several attacks a year. On the rare occasions that I do get one, it is gone almost immediately when I take the medication - in about a day. Ask your doctor about it. In the meantime, here are a couple of informative links. |
