I get herpes frequently (maybe every 15 days), I have suffered a lot and I have tried everything. The only thing that has helped me in recent years were Compeed patches.
I bought Sorefix with great reservation and doubted if it would have any effect. However, it really does what it says. Of course, the herpes I had this time was small, barely on the lips and more on the skin, so it was easy for the cream to stay on it all day. The cream does not absorb, it creates a film and is not visible at all (maybe it shines a little). It does not cause any discomfort, it's like you haven't put anything on.
It immediately relieved the discomfort, did not cause a sore, and the herpes healed very quickly even though I used it from the second day and not as soon as I felt the first discomfort. I reserve judgment on how it will work on herpes that is on the lips, but for now, I am thrilled.

It is the best product for cold sores (and I have tried them all) because it effectively treats them without being visible, and it doesn't dry out the lips like the others. Unfortunately, it has been out of stock everywhere in our country for a while now.

Very good product, I just can't find it anymore.. Has it changed its name or has it simply been discontinued? It's a shame though because it was the most effective thing I had tried.

Excellent. I have suffered from cold sores since I was young. I do water sports all winter and every week I would have a cold sore after exercising. Since I started using sorefix (preventively before windsurfing), the cold sores have not reappeared. Coincidence? I don't think so!
