Abreva Recommended Most By Pharmacists For Cold Sores.(Brief Article)
Virus Weekly November 13, 2001 2001 NOV 13 – (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) — In just eight months on the market, Abreva has earned the No. 1 pharmacist recommended position in the cold sore category.
According to Pharmacy Times magazine, nearly half of the pharmacists surveyed nationwide tell cold sore sufferers, when asked, to use Abreva for cold sores.
Abreva received 45.7% of pharmacist recommendations, ahead of the second most recommended product, which had 9.7% of pharmacist recommendations. Ten products were listed in all. The results of the over-the-counter (OTC) study were published in the October 2001 issue of Pharmacy Times.
Abreva is the only nonprescription cold sore medicine approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to shorten the healing time. Abreva’s unique medicine, docosanol 10%, cuts healing time in half (compared with untreated outbreaks) by penetrating the skin to help stop the cold sore virus from invading healthy cells. here cold sore remedies
“There’s finally a product I can recommend to my customers that is clinically proven to heal their cold sores,” said Gary Solomon, RPh, community pharmacist in Orange County, California. “Abreva is a solution that really works for cold sore sufferers, instead of using just a symptom reliever like the other cold sore remedies on the shelf.” New York pharmacist Allen Krassenbaum, RPh, agrees: “I’ve heard a lot of positive accounts from my customers about their experience with Abreva. As a pharmacist, I believe in the product because of how well it works, and I recommend it to the cold sore sufferers that come in to my store.” In clinical trials, Abreva significantly reduced the healing time of patients’ cold sore episodes and the duration of symptoms. These clinical research results were published in the January 2001 issue of Today’s Therapeutic Trends and the August 2001 issue of the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology. go to web site cold sore remedies
