EFFECTIVE RELIEF FROM COLD SORE SYMPTOMS - Herstat Cold Sore Cream works to soothe the symptoms of a cold sore outbreak, including dryness, cracking, redness and irritation.SUBTLE & SOOTHING - Herstat Cold Sore Care provides relief from dry, cracked and sore lips by creating a protective barrier that locks in moisture and softens aggrevated areas. On application, the ointment has a subtle appearance which makes it perfect for taking with you on the go and applying whenever and wherever needed.APPLY AT ANY STAGE OF A COLD SORE OUTBREAK - You can use Herstat Cold Sore Care at any stage of an outbreak for effective relief - either at the early stages when tingling and burning sensations start, when blisters have appeared or when the cold sore has developed into ulcers, or when the scabbing and crusting process has begun.PURIFIED PROPOLIS EXTRACT - Herstat Ointment contains 3% Purified Propolis Extract. Propolis is a natural, antimicrobial substance created by bees to keep their hives protected from disease and bacteria. Our propolis is sustainably sourced by honey farmers in Manitoba and is purified in our own refinery in Canada where it undergoes rigorous quality checks before being used in our ointment. Propolis also gives our ointment its pleasant smell and taste and helps to soothe and moisturise the lips.

How to use

Directions: Apply Herstat directly to the lesions / affected area every 2 hours / 5 times a day.

Hazards and Cautions

For external use only.

Herstat is a topical ointment containing petrolatum with natural propolis and other minor ingredients, manufactured to current GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) standards, and extensively tested for safety and effectiveness. It can be used as needed, anytime and as often as necessary. For best results, it should be applied every 2 hours, up to 5 times a day. Herstat is for external use only, and should not be used in or around the eyes.

Herstat contains propolis, that may cause skin irritation. For this reason, it should be tested the first time it is used by applying a small quantity on the skin of the arm, on the inside of the elbow, and checking for any reaction. If a skin reaction occurs - such as redness, itching and/or a rash - do not use the product.

Also, an allergic reaction (contact dermatitis) to one of the ingredients may rarely develop with use. If this happens, a skin irritation or rash may occur, and you should stop using the product. If problems persist for some time after stopping applying Herstat, consult your doctor or your health professional.

Herstat should not be used in case of known hypersensitivity/allergy to any of the ingredients - see list of ingredients on carton.

Herstat should be stored below 25°C and should be used before the expiry date that is printed on the box and also embossed on the end of the tube.
