   I occasionally get cold sores. If you get them, you know that sure tingly feeling in your lip where it is about to appear. That is when you put this stuff on right away. It is a clear gel which stings for a minute or so when you put it on. It has alcohol in it, so it dries pretty quick and it then forms a film. Although it is not a colored film, it is not like you can’t see it at all. The best to describe it is like a small piece of plastic.

   You have to do this several times a day. You can’t peel the film off unless you like to end up hurting yourself. The instructions say you can remove it by dissolving it with more gel and then taking it off. I found that the warm shower takes care of it although you should not try to remove the film all the time since it is taking care of that cold sore.

   It is absolutely the most effective product I have used for cold sores. With other products, the cold sore would still materialize. With the first sign/feeling of the cold sore coming up, you have to apply the Zilactin. Only with this product I was able to prevent the cold sore from becoming that big oozy blister. Now, that does not mean it just disappeared instantly. I could still feel the tingly bump for several days when I was applying the gel. When the bump went away, my skin would still heal by forming new skin and getting a red patchy area. So it basically skipped the worst days of the oozing blister in between.

   Update: I had two cold sores popping up again. I applied the Zilactin right away and my lip seemed to be doing fine. The Zilactin dries it out a lot and you always feel like you have some duct tape or so on your lip. So I decided to put a fat layer of Vaseline on top of it just before going to sleep. Big mistake. The next morning, I had two full blown cold sores and at that time Zilactin does not do that much any more. Obviously, the product works by drying out the blister and you should not try to mess with that.

   I’ve tried just about every “cure” out there for cold sores and have a running prescription for Acyclovir. Nothing but the Acyclovir had ever worked before, and with the Acyclovir it was critical to catch the cold sore early. I’ve found though that with this stuff, I can nail the cold sore with a one-two punch that knocks out the cold sore every time. I haven’t had an outbreak in well over a year since discovering this stuff, and used to have a pretty bad outbreak every 2-3 months. I never go far from home without this stuff now. Oh, I should mention that early on I used it after an outbreak had already started, and the outbreak went away and healed much faster with this stuff applied. Others have also mentioned the “tingle” when applying it. I thought maybe the stuff just always “tingles” so tried it once when I didn’t feel an outbreak coming, and there was no “tingle.” So clearly, the “tingle” means it is working on the virus, just like it’s supposed to. Pretty cool, I think.

   Cold sores are one of the great aggravations of life. They aren’t going to kill us (I guess), but they sure look ugly and are painful when we have them. Over the years before I found this, I tried all kinds of ointments and liquids but none of them seemed be effective. Then I tried Zilactin.

   I’m not going to pretend to understand why this product works so well. It seems to create a barrier over the developing cold sore and dry it out a bit, but it ultimately seems to stop them for me from spreading or developing futher. I’ve been using it for about ten years or so, and it really has been the most effective product I’ve ever found. It tastes and smells a bit weird until it dries (which is very quickly) and after that, you’ll hardly notice the area itching or bothering you. After two days with Zilactin for me, they are always gone. A real plus it that using this quickly keeps them from becoming obvious to an observer, so you don’t have to worry about an ugly blemish.

   Sadly, I wasn’t able to find it on a trip to my local Walgreen’s, but I’m glad Amazon came through, and their price certainly was better than I had been paying. Although the container is fairly small, you’ll find it lasts surprisingly long, because if you catch them the very first day you feel one coming on, a small application will suppress it growing larger, and it will have healed fully in two or three days.

   Seriously the best product I’ve ever used for cold sores (after the, oh oh, it’s coming on phase…during the blister phase is when I apply the Zilactin to sort of seal off the offending area). In my experience, A very tiny amount of Zilactin helps with the pain and keeps the area dry and clean. Also allows me to apply lip balm, lipstick, or lip lysine cream — with a sterile swab, of course — never double dip into the Zilactin or any lip product when you have a cold sore! Also, one mustn’t pick at the lip after applying Zilactin, because it’s sort of like a liquid bandage and you don’t want to tear the skin while attempting to remove it before it’s ready to scab off on its own. (Another reason to use only the tiniest amount needed to lightly cover the cold sore area–I find that it is unpleasant like superglue if the Zilactin gets beyond the cold sore area, and I avoid getting any of this product on the healthy lip surface.) Anyway, that’s my experience. I’m so glad to have found this item on Amazon, because the stores don’t sell it anymore.
