How Come I Can't Find Viractin Cold Sore Treatment In Any Drug Store? (Page 4)

Viractin Cold Sore Treatment was the BEST. I have suffered with coldsores for years. This was the best treatment I have come acrossed. A small amount of this product and no more coldsore. I haven't found an answer to my question yet. Is Viractin still available over counter or do I need a prescription for it?

I haven't found anywhere that still carries it, but someone posted the other day that their Walmart was able to order it for them. I think they don't make it anymore, but I will definitely try that - I've been nursing my last tube along for quite a while now!

I've also found relief from straight eucalyptus oil (get a reputable brand)

HTH!

Everyone is saying the same thing - none of the other cold sore meds worked and Viractin did! I'm considering taking what's left of mine and having it reverse engineered. lol Seriously!

Meanwhile, I have a tiny bit left in my tube and have found, as one user mentioned way back in this thread, eucalyptus oil helps a lot!

It's being pulled off the market because it DOES work. Thank the the alphabet agencies for taking away anything that works. More control?

I’ve ordered it from young living and DoTERRA. They’re two of the most popular reputable brands. There are others out there, but I can’t recall the brands. Should be able to find them pretty easily with an online search though. Just make sure the one you get is food grade. HTH!

I agree with everything Casey says 100% Abreva??!! Are you kidding me? Look my friend, you obviously haven't had a cold sore b4. None of that s*** you named in the stores actually works. I've tried all of them, but viractin was the s***! 2 or 3 days your s*** was gone like f***en magic! That took it off the shelf because it actually works.

Re: Verwon (# 1)

You have obviously never used Viractin on a cold sore to say it really doesn't do anything to shorten the life of a cold sore. This was the best medication EVER introduced for relief AND shorten the life of a cold sore. I still have a tiny bit left in an old tube that I hang on to for dear life in case I get cold sores again.

Re: Amen (# 66)

As with you, my body chemistry works best with Veractin for Cold Sores to terminate it. BUT to get the product I need to purchase it online to get the best price as no Pharmacy carries the product here in Canada.

I agree with the others that Viractin was the best for cold sores.
Who is the manufacturer so we request for it to be put back on the market.

I agree. It was the only OTC product that actually stopped the cold sore from forming if put on at first sign. Also helped reduce duration/pain. Probably discontinued because it WORKED!

Re: CeeinJax (# 3)

I don't understand why this product was discontinued. It worked like magic. The last tube I bought through Walmart pharmacy I had bought a few tubes. As of 12/23/23 I'm still squeezing a bit out of my last tube, by the way it's gold to me. It does work I don't care what you say it seals the blister in its track & dries it out. Please, please bring it back!!!
