Terramicina Cream For Lip Blisters

Updated April 29, 2016

I have used terramicina cream in the past for lip blisters, and found it to be really soothing and quickly healed with this treatment. Recently I tried to buy a fresh tube, and the pharmacy said I would be better using another product for cold sores. I did, and it did not work. When I say lip blisters, they are really painful and multiply very fast, and the terramicina cream is very soothing. Is it safe to use for this purpose?

Hello, Maureen! How are you?

Is it safe to use, technically yes, as long as your doctor approves. It is an antibiotic ointment, so it may be soothing to use on cold sores. However, you do have to be cautious about overusing any antibiotic products.

However, it is not going to shorten their duration or prevent future outbreaks. If you consult your doctor, they should be able to prescribe an antiviral medication, such as acyclovir, that you can take twice a day to help prevent them from recurring. The U.S. FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and stomach pain.

Is there anything else I can help with?
