"I am pregnant, can I apply Abreva on my cold sore?"

It is not recommended to use Abreva™ on cold sores during pregnancy due to a lack of data on its safety in pregnant women. It is advisable to consult with a healthcare provider to receive a prescription for medications such as Acyclovir or Valtrex™ to treat cold sores effectively and safely during pregnancy. If you are unable to see a doctor in the next few days, consider using a platform like Bonjour Santé for a quick consultation to prevent the infection from worsening.
