Start Your Online Consultation Today
Getting treatment for cold sores at the corner of your mouth is straightforward with EverydayMeds. Our online consultation process connects you directly with UK-registered pharmacists who can prescribe the most suitable treatment for your needs. Complete our medical questionnaire in under 5 minutes, and receive your prescription approval typically within 2-4 hours during working days.
Affordable Aciclovir Treatment Options
EverydayMeds stocks the most cost-effective cold sore treatments available. Aciclovir 400mg tablets remain the first-line prescription treatment for cold sores, particularly effective when started at the first tingling sensation. For localised treatment, Aciclovir 5% cream can be applied directly to the affected area at the corner of your mouth. Both options may help reduce the duration and severity of outbreaks when used appropriately.
Alternative Antiviral Medications
For patients who may benefit from alternative treatments, EverydayMeds also provides Valaciclovir 500mg tablets. This medication works similarly to aciclovir but may require less frequent dosing. Your consulting pharmacist will recommend the most suitable option based on your medical history, symptom severity, and treatment preferences during the online consultation process.
Cold Sores at the Corner of the Mouth
Cold sores appearing at the corner of the mouth (angular location) can be particularly troublesome as they may crack when opening the mouth wide. This location often experiences more movement and stretching, potentially prolonging healing time. Early treatment with antiviral medications like aciclovir may help minimise discomfort and support faster recovery.
Treatment Timing and Effectiveness
The effectiveness of cold sore treatment often depends on timing. Aciclovir tablets work best when started within 24-48 hours of the first symptoms appearing - typically the initial tingling or burning sensation. For recurrent cold sores, some patients may benefit from keeping treatment readily available to start at the earliest sign of an outbreak.

Once your prescription is approved, EverydayMeds dispatches your medication using tracked delivery services. Most orders arrive within 24-48 hours across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
