NOW L-lysine 500 mg, 250 Capsules

They are easy to swallow and hopefully they will work.

I was sick of paying 17 bucks for the smallest tube Ive ever seen of Abreva to treat my cold sores. I needed another solution and I just searched and searched. Then this amino acid popped up and I gave it a shot. Im very glad I did. I take it ever single day. Ill take 1000 mg everyday and when days that I feel a cold sore coming or a big event Im nervous about is happening Ill take 2-3000 mg for 3 days straight. It works amazing. I would get cold sores one after the other after the other. Maybe one a month. Thats awful and it looks bad. I get maybe 3 a year now more like two and they last very very short amount of time. Now if I actually see a cold sore coming in I will using L lysine plus which is a very inexpensive cold sore medicine along with this. other than that the cold sores are so reduced since taking this that I cant recommend it enough. OH and dont buy the 1000 mg pill is like a horse pill and terrible to try to get down. Get these take two and thank me later.

We have an almost-two year old pup that recently contracted warts (thanks, dog park!). in her mouth and around her gum line. They were AWFUL looking and we were told by our vet that we would need to let her ride it out (as long as she was still eating/drinking regularly) so that she could build up antibodies to fight them off - otherwise there was the potential they could come back again. We did some research and found that Lysine could be a great way to help build up antibodies, and cut down on the recovery time (which ranges anywhere from one month to six months). When we received these, we opened the capsule and sprinkled one pill (500 MG) in her breakfast, and one pill during her nightly meal (we were using a wet food, so this was easier to make sure she didnt spit it out). Within five weeks, she was completely wart-clear, so we were so grateful to have come across this resource.

My rescue cats all have FHV, and require daily lysine to control it. I have been extremely happy with their other products, especially the lysine. Most important to me is consistently high quality products at a reasonable price. Ive had problems with other brands, and I can immediately tell because my cats symptoms come back--Ive never that had that happen with NOW.

I was surprised when the Doctor suggested this supplement for small flat bumps that were appearing on my fingers. This doesnt seem like the primary use of this supplement. But one a day has kept the bumps away. Buying through Amazon has meant I could buy in quality and got me the best price.

I bought this for a friend who had cold sores and he took some at the beginning of an outbreak and he says it went away in 3 days before blowing up to uncontrollable proportions. This is great. I have seen his bad days adn they are pretty bad. The situation usually doesnt go away for like 3 or 4 weeks but with this it went away in 3-5 days max. Since taking these he has also felt more hope and started a new diet. You have to take away l-arginine from your diet some way to help with the cold sores. So he has reduced this , you cant eliminate it completely because the arginine is an essential amino acid and your body needs it. The lysine, decreases arginine Ive read so it helps keep the cold sores at bay. Im glad it helped my friend, he was going through some tough times because of it. Try it, you never know. He has reported no side effects.

So i tried the same brand 1000 mg tablet and have choked every time I try to take it. I will happily go back to these capsules! I can double up if I’m having an outbreak, or I can open the capsule and put it in milk if my child is having one. It doesn’t hurt. It’s wonderful. It really cuts down on fever blister and shingles healing time.

Product is as advertised and arrived on time in good condition. We use two of these capsules every day so find the large size convenient.

Ive been taking L-lysine once a day along with my vitamins for years now. These work great for keeping cold sores at bay, healing chapped lips, and helping me stay healthy. I really like this brand of L-lysine, it works very well. If Im out in the sun too long and my lips start feeling chapped I take three before bed and chapped lips are gone by morning. If I start feeling a cold sore coming in I take a few before bed and more often than not it will never show, or if it does I take one three times a day and it shortens the severity of the sore and heals it faster. Nice size easy open bottle too.

I take the powderout of the capsules and add one to each of my cats dinner dishes, then mix it with the food. My vet advised me to do this because they both have eye herpes, for which there is no cure. The L-Lysine helps support their imune system. They dont taste it at all if you mix it well with the food.
