Abbott Cold Sore Cream Discontinued: Alternatives & Information

Abbott no longer manufactures a product branded as "Abbott's Cold Sore Cream." The company previously offered a topical cream containing docosanol as the active ingredient for the treatment of recurrent herpes labialis (cold sores). However, that particular cream has been discontinued, and Abbott no longer has any over-the-counter medications for cold sores in its product portfolio.

If you're seeking treatment for cold sores, many other over-the-counter and prescription medications contain docosanol or other active ingredients effective against the herpes simplex virus that causes cold sores. Consult with a pharmacist or a healthcare professional to recommend the appropriate cold sore treatment options based on your symptoms and individual needs.
