Getting treatment for cold sore symptoms through EverydayMeds is straightforward. Our online consultation process takes just minutes to complete.

Available Cold Sore Treatments
EverydayMeds stocks several effective options for managing cold sore outbreaks. Aciclovir 400mg tablets are commonly prescribed for oral treatment, helping to reduce the duration and severity of symptoms when taken early. Aciclovir 5% cream provides targeted topical application directly to affected areas. For those seeking alternatives, we also offer valaciclovir 500mg tablets and branded Valtrex options.
Understanding Cold Sore Symptoms
Recognising early cold sore symptoms is crucial for effective treatment. The initial tingling, itching or burning sensation typically appears 24-48 hours before visible blisters develop. This prodromal stage is when antiviral treatment may be most beneficial. Small fluid-filled blisters then form, usually around the lips or mouth area, before eventually bursting and forming crusts that heal over 7-10 days.
Treatment Timing and Effectiveness
Starting antiviral treatment during the first 24-72 hours of symptoms may help reduce outbreak duration. Aciclovir works by preventing the herpes virus from reproducing, potentially limiting the severity of symptoms. Our clinicians will advise on appropriate dosing schedules based on your individual circumstances and symptom presentation.
Professional Online Consultation
All prescriptions are issued following clinical assessment by our qualified healthcare professionals. They'll review your consultation responses and may ask additional questions if needed. Once approved, your treatment is dispensed by our registered pharmacy and dispatched for next-day delivery. We maintain full confidentiality throughout the process.
Ordering Process
Select your preferred treatment option and complete the medical questionnaire honestly and thoroughly. Our prescribers will assess your suitability for cold sore medication based on current symptoms, medical history, and any existing medications. If approved, you'll receive confirmation and tracking information for your order.

EverydayMeds provides ongoing support throughout your treatment journey. Our pharmacy team can answer questions about dosage, side effects, or general medication queries. We also offer repeat prescription services for those who experience recurrent outbreaks and need regular access to antiviral treatments.
