Which ointment is the best against herpes? Anonymous customer's question
Pharmacist's answer:
Herpes is not curable, but it is manageable. Over-the-counter medications are available to help reduce pain and speed recovery after a herpes outbreak. Topical pain relievers are applied to the skin and have a numbing effect. These include creams or ointments containing lidocaine, camphor, and benzocaine.
Hydrocortisone, a 1% cream, is a low-dose topical steroid that reduces inflammation and relieves the redness and burning sensation caused by a herpes outbreak. Hydrocortisone cream is often used with a prescription antiviral medication to treat genital herpes.
Abreva 10% cream without a prescription for the treatment and treatment of herpes. It is a topical cream applied to the skin five times daily at the first signs of an outbreak (such as tingling, itching, or a bump). Early treatment of herpes shortens the duration of the outbreak by one to two days. Abreva is not approved for the treatment of genital herpes.
