Let me start this off with every person is different. I'm assuming this will work similar with other people as it has with me though.
Ok, now to the review. I have gotten cold sores since... well since as far back as I can remember. I'm almost 21 years old now and I am very self-conscious about having cold sores. It gives me such bad anxiety and I get panic attacks and blehh... it's not good. Frankly, it makes me want to hide away and just never go out ever again. I used to get cold sores every month or so, and sometimes 2+ times a month in the winter. It devastated me. I heard about lysine from my doctor because I couldn't afford to keep up the prescribed stuff and he said that Lysine would be better because it's preventative and still helps get rid of them when happen to get a cold sore. I ordered this quite a while ago and started taking 1 pill twice a day. I didn't have any cold sores. At all. When winter first started this year, I went to visit family in california and got sick from them. I was stressing out about a lot of things (the possibility of getting a cold sore was one of the main stressors), so of course, I got a cold sore. I started taking 2 pills 3 times a day. I'm sure if it was possible to overdose on this, I would have. The cold sore went through its normal cycle, but a lot quicker. Winter isn't over yet, so I've been taking 2 pills twice a day and I haven't had one again (yet). I really owe so much to L-Lysine.
I know this was a long review, but I hope it helps someone. And I really hope that L-Lysine will help you like it has me. You don't even have to buy it from this seller. (I just did because it was cheaper haha) Good luck and Godspeed!!
