Description
Cold Sore Treatment
Simplexanol contains 20% Docosanol. Docosanol is used for topical treatment for recurrent herpes simplex labialis (cold sores or fever blisters) and is one of the best cold sore medications that are proven to be effective against the herpes virus cold sore.
This product also contains lysine. Lysine is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins (a building block of protein). “Unlike some other amino acids, the human body cannot make lysine.”
Lysine can help to slow down or prevent the growth of the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), which is responsible for cold sores.
How Does This Product Work?
Herpes Simplex Virus-1 requires arginine, an amino acid that helps the body build protein. This product works by preventing the body from absorbing arginine, thus making it difficult for the HSV-1 to grow and spread. It does this by inhibiting fusion between the plasma membrane and the herpes simplex virus envelope, thereby preventing viral entry into cells and subsequent viral replication.
This product helps to:
- Shorten the healing time of the cold sore.
- Get rid of cold sores in 2-5 days when used at the first sign of tingle.
- Shortens the duration of tingling, pain, burning, and itching symptoms.
- Relieve cold sores, sun, and fever blisters.
- Prevent cold sores
