It works well, but the smell is really bad. I love the Zicam gel swabs, but went to Walxxs and seemed that it didn't carry it any more. I can't even find it at Zicam's offical website.

I felt a cold sore was coming last night so I put this on over night and continued to apply on a few times during the day today. It helped to dry up the cold sores very quickly and stop them from growing any bigger... it works awesome!!! My cold sore has already become a scab in just a day!!! the only con is it dries up the skin and smells very bad...which doesn't bother me much.

For cold sore I would only recomend Zilactin-L. It is strong and effective fast!!

Where did all the reviews go? I've tried a lot of coldsore-relief products, and I use this on my coldsores after they have already formed. It dries them up without bothering your skin, and helps minimize them. I never have a noticeable coldsore while using this, and I think they go away a lot faster with this product. Another plus is that it is a clear product. It does have a medicinal smell, but is not bothersome to me. Try this, you won't be sorry.

I occasionally get cold sores. The last time I had one...it was really bad. So I decided to try Abreva and it did NOT work at all! [$] went down the drain, basically. I used a whole tube of it and it didn't go away for over a month! Recently, I got a cold sore again. I tried Campho-phenique...and I was very pleased with it! I got it for [$] something at [...]. I applied it three times a day, as recommended, and it went completely away in under a week. PROS: Effective at removing cold sores, works quickly, cheap.CONS: Tastes BAD (do not use before eating or drinking!), can make skin on lips flaky. The "drying action" can make your lip skin flaky... What I did was as soon as I saw my lip skin flaking, I briskly rubbed it off with my finger, then washed my finger off with soap and water. It hurt a little (rubbing the skin off), but a few days later, the cold sore was completely gone. So the benefits outweigh the pain! OVERALL: If you have a cold sore, buy this stuff! Either here or for real cheap, [...]. Don't fall for Abreva. It's all hype and no delivery for me. Campo-phenique works much quicker, more effectively, and cheaper than Abreva in my opinion.

This is the best thing I've found to dry up fully present cold sores. If I catch it before it surfaces (red, tingly) then Abreva works really well, but if I wake up with an already present cold sore this is my go-to product. You do have to reapply it every few hours, but the product is clear and REALLY does dry up the cold sore super fast, but without being too harsh on your skin. After a day and a half of treatment the cold sore is virtually gone. FYI, it does smell a little bit like Vick's, but isn't bothersome to me. One tube lasts a long time.

It is effective at dying out cold sores, even if it tastes like medicine and must be applied frequently. A few cons, but I recommend this product.

high powered lip balm, I don't have cold sores, but to me, this product is a bit better than most out there for general lip health.

I've had cold sores since I was 15. Yuck. This is the only stuff that works at all for me. I am sensitive to the dyes they use in lipstick, so if I wear it, I get a cold sore. Then I discovered that if, before I put on the lipstick, I put a dab of Campho-Phenique on my lip where the cold sores occur (or just smear some all over my lips), I don't get a cold sore! Even if I start to get a sore (from the sun, or wind, or stress, etc.), the CP will almost always do the trick. Since I always have it on hand, haven't had an actual cold sore in AGES. And I like the smell, though not everyone would (it's kind of medicinal). Yay!
