How to Access Cold Sore Treatment Online
Complete Your Online Consultation
Getting affordable cold sore treatment through EverydayMeds starts with a simple online consultation. Our secure medical questionnaire takes just 5 minutes to complete, asking about your symptoms, medical history, and previous treatments. UK-registered prescribers review every consultation within 24 hours, ensuring you receive appropriate treatment recommendations.
Available Cold Sore Treatments
EverydayMeds offers several cost-effective antiviral treatments for cold sores. Aciclovir 400mg tablets remain the most commonly prescribed option, helping to reduce outbreak severity and duration when taken at the first sign of symptoms. Aciclovir 5% cream provides topical treatment for localised symptoms, whilst Valaciclovir 500mg tablets offer an alternative for those requiring different dosing schedules.
Our treatment options include both generic and branded medications, allowing patients to choose based on their budget and preferences. Valtrex 500mg tablets provide the branded alternative to generic valaciclovir, whilst maintaining the same active ingredient and effectiveness.
Treatment Costs and Delivery
Aciclovir tablets start from £12.99 for a complete treatment course, making professional cold sore treatment accessible without private prescription fees. Topical Aciclovir cream costs from £8.99, suitable for mild outbreaks or combination therapy. All orders include free standard delivery, with next-day options available for urgent treatment needs.
Patients benefit from discreet packaging without pharmacy branding, maintaining complete privacy. Bulk ordering options help reduce costs for those experiencing frequent outbreaks, with repeat prescription services available through your online account.
When to Start Treatment
Antiviral medications work most effectively when started at the first sign of cold sore symptoms. The initial tingling or burning sensation indicates the ideal time to begin Aciclovir treatment, potentially preventing blister formation entirely. Early treatment may reduce outbreak duration from 7-10 days to 3-5 days.
Our prescribers can recommend appropriate dosing schedules based on your outbreak frequency and severity. Some patients benefit from episodic treatment for occasional outbreaks, whilst others may require suppressive therapy for frequent episodes.
Professional Support and Follow-up
EverydayMeds provides ongoing support throughout your treatment journey. Our qualified prescribers offer advice on managing triggers, recognising early symptoms, and optimising treatment effectiveness. Patient support includes guidance on lifestyle modifications that may help reduce outbreak frequency.
Follow-up consultations ensure your treatment remains appropriate and effective. Patients can access their prescription history through secure online accounts, making repeat orders simple and convenient.
