If you mean is there a herpes cures on the market that will forever remove the virus from your body, then the answer is no. There is no drug or treatment at this time that cures herpes. There are things you can do to make your outbreaks less severe, and to possible reduce the number of times you get the fever blisters each year.
There are a lot of cold sores remedies that promise miraculous results. If you find one of them, and it works for you, then continue to use it. Not every product that says it gets rid of cold sores fast works for every person. That would be too simple, and life is just not simple.
A lot of people treat their cold sores with home remedies. Since there is no proven cure this method of treatment is as good as any the medical field has come up with. To tell the truth the home remedies are probably better than the store bought remedies.
Home remedies for things such as this focus on creating a condition inside your body that is undesirable for the virus to live in. If the host presents an undesirable place to stay then the virus cannot hang around. It high tails it, and gets out-of-town fast.
In order to provide your own immune system with the capabilities of fighting off this invader you must give your body the proper fuel it needs to function. Your diet must be healthy, and well balanced. When you start eating a poor diet, you start keeping your body from obtaining some of the vitamins, minerals, flavanoids, and antioxidants it needs to have the immune system warriors on constant alert. So remember to feed your body well.
Be certain that you keep your body hydrated, and that you get an adequate amount of rest. Alcoholic laced beverages deplete your system of fluids, sodas are full of sodium and they actually increase dehydration in your body. Your defense system cannot work if you are making them slowly die of thirst. You do not have to stop the other beverages you like. You do need to increase your daily water consumption though. Your body needs plain, ordinary, thirst quenching water to survive, and to fight like it is created to fight.
Rest is also a major factor in allowing your body to stop you from having an outbreak. When you do not get enough sleep at night, your body becomes run down, and your immune system becomes sluggish. It cannot stop the outbreak because you have depleted it of all the energy it needed to function, and then you did not give it the proper amount of time to recharge. You have made yourself vulnerable to an outbreak, and it is coming.
Try every treatment you have available to you in order to stop these outbreaks, but keeping your body prepared to resist the outbreak will be more beneficial than any drug, or treatment that you can apply externally.
