Zovirax Cold Sore Cream is a clinically proven treatment for cold sores (herpes simplex virus). Containing the antiviral ingredient aciclovir 5% w/w, it works by stopping the virus from multiplying, helping to shorten the duration of outbreaks and relieve symptoms such as tingling, itching, burning, and blistering.
