Cold Sore Cream with 5% Aciclovir £1.49

Aldi are selling Cold Sore Cream with 5% Aciclovir at only £1.49 from Thurs 18th May. Zovirax and Boots own equivalent are £4-£6. This is wonderful stuff if you use it at the first sign of a cold sore.

    Try to get HSV1 for greater chance of cold sores, while HSV2 will be more likely to result in genital infections. I assume contact with cold sores would probably work.

    mm funny the BNF lists the net price of aciclovir cream 5% 2g as £3.01 :confused:
  • HankMcSpank this is not really a laughing matter.
