Ingredients and what they do for you

• Docosanol 10% — the active ingredient that helps shorten the duration of the cold sore and reduces associated symptoms when applied early.
• Alpha benzyl alcohol — a non-medicinal ingredient that assists in formulation stability and can help with skin comfort on application.
• Light mineral oil — serves as a cosmetic vehicle to help the cream spread smoothly over the affected area.
• Propylene glycol — aids in moisture retention and helps the cream penetrate the skin to reach the sore.
• Sucrose distearate and sucrose stearate — emulsifiers that improve texture and spreadability of the product.
• Water — the base of the formulation that helps combine all ingredients into a stable cream.
