Well, as for me, IMHO, the verdict is in!

Choraphor actually WORSENS the symptoms and increases healing time of
an HSV1 labial OB!

Once again for all you armchair scientists out there:

Choraphor actually WORSENS the symptoms and increases healing time of
an HSV1 labial OB!

Hell Yeah I'm surprised. I thought At least I'd be able to see either
nothing happen, or something positive happen. But alas, Choraphor is
BEST when avoided.

At $100.00 S&H incl. Choraphor is by far the biggest waste of money of
all the "cures" second only to the Dermasptic which "DOES work for
some" But not all. Something about ionized silver sensitivity I hear.

As I stated Above, I applied it per instructions included with the
solution, to only ONE Lesion. This lesion WAS healing rapidly with
Acyclovir alone. It is clearly apparent to me now that Healing has
slowed considerably than before Choraphor was applied.

I noticed with Viroxyn, that in conjunction with Acyclovir, A cold
sore would last no more than two days, and NEVER broke the skin. This
is the fourth day with Acyclovir and Choraphor. and there's still
visible redness and puffiness.

My advice, Try Acyclovir on a per OB basis, Tingle? Pop four of 'em.
Then wait. If the tingly area reddens or a lesion begins to appear,
work a vial of Viroxyn into that spot. It hurts like hell, but it'll
be gone faster than you can say "public embarrassment."

So, in my non-scientific experiments:

DermaSeptic: So-so. Pretty good, but not reliable and a P.I.T.A. to
use.
Viroxyn: Worth a try! Seems to play nice with others.
Choraphor: Planning on Buying some? Why not just throw your Ben
Franklin out the window?
Red Algea: C'mon! this is just silly.
Acyclovir: I guess there's a reason Doctors prescribe it. It Works!
Works even better with Viroxyn.
