DIRECTIONS
Adults and children over 2 years of age:

• Clean the lip area of any lip preparations, lotions, ointments, residual beverages, or cosmetics including lipstick using only warm water or alcohol
• Slide off to remove the protective blue paper cover and slide it on the other end-opposite the white applicator tip
• Squeeze the vial firmly on the arrow shown on the blue paper cap until you hear it snap
• Hold with the white applicator tip down to allow the medication to saturate the tip
• To minimize pain during application gently touch the site of the cold sore with the saturated applicator tip. Once the area is numb, rub the site of the cold sore and the surrounding area.  Rub firmly to allow the treatment to deeply penetrate the skin.
• To treat most cold sores, usually one treatment is enough.  If your symptoms go away and then return later, apply another dose for the second cold sore
• Do not use more than 3 times per day
• Discard after use.

Children under 2 years of age: ask a dentist or physician.
