- Lyranda® - Lysine Cold Sore Treatment - Chewable L-Lysine Tablets - Faster Absorption and Better Hygiene

This stuff is a must-have if you or a family member gets cold sores. It's like Abreva from the inside out. Yes, the tablets are large but they're chewable. They taste like a sour, fake pineapple but they're not awful. I didn't have them when I first felt the cold sore coming but I ordered them for overnight to try. I already had the blister by then (Monday morning). I took as directed and today (Thursday) it's gone. I have a small open spot still healing but that's it. I'm ordering more as soon as this box is gone because I want to have it IMMEDIATELY if I feel another coming on.

I have cold sore break out at least twice a year and I dread it. I always know the tell tell signs when I feel my lip tingling. I have used these for 2 years now at the first signs of tingling and i have not had a break out. They really work. I have recommended these to friends as well. Yeah they are big and not exactly appetizing to chew on, but its medicine and it works.

Cold sore hero! If you have a cold sore, it’s recommended you take this when you have tingling/burning. However I didn’t have those symptoms and mine appeared overnight and was huge. I feel this helped significantly because it’s flattened and the swelling is almost completely gone. I recommend taking these 2/3 times a day, applying ice 5x a day for 10 minutes, applying abreva 3 times a day and sleeping with a mederma patch. I promise you those steps helped with my cold sore and I will gladly recommend this to anyone. TASTES ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE BUT IT WORKS AND WILL GROW ON YOU! Tablets are huge by the way.

They are huge and have a very strong and very bitter taste. It is way to hard to chew these especially more than one and they call for several a day. Im sure they work but I couldn't handle finishing one let alone the amount needed.

Seems to be helping with a cold sore in my mouth and one on my lip. Sweet flavor and maybe I should be dissolving it in a bit of water like this tablet could do. Am letting it melt in my mouth so it is right around the sore. Big tablets and strong in flavor but definitely helps since it is taken internally and seems safe. Mouth and lip was kinda in bad shape after this surgery and guess my immune system was down since I developed 2 sores. Definitely needed something safe to use inside my mouth and body. Flavor is a bit strong but it is helping quickly. Would recommend.

These are easy to take and work wonders for quickly diminishing sores. They are easier to take if you snap them in half at the indented line on the tablet and chew one half, then the other -- they taste mostly like chewable vitamin C tablets with a hint of "medicine" aftertaste -- not bad at all. The flavor does not linger in the mouth at all. My package arrived quickly, with no issues with the box or tablets. Overall, very pleased.

I felt like a cold sore was coming, I took it right away and it was gone in a few days. I feel that many people have mouth viruses or cold sores is because many people lack vitamins in their system. If you don’t have enough iron in your body you get anemia, so i believe that if you lack lysine in your system you end up with sores around the mouth.. those with low immune system, i suggest you take lysine and other vitamins that your body needs.

Heads up, if you're autistic and sensitive to tastes, this is absolutely godawful. I saw the warning before buying it and tried to be strong and just power through it and I really could not. It's extremely bitter. The tablet also is gritty (grit is one of my worst texture aversions) and was painful on my tongue and roof of my mouth. I will attempt the crushing and dissolving in water trick another reviewer posted and hope that helps. In the meantime, I bought lysine pills and those are way better.
