Success after IF

If you get cold sores...

have you used Abreva during your pregnancy?  I got my BFP yesterday and of course a cold sore pops up this morning.  I recall my doctor said it was fine to use my first pregnancy but I went on Abreva's website this morning and it says there have been no tests to determine if safe during pregnancy.  Ugh.  I am not sure what to do.

  • I have had a few and my RE said it was OK to use Abreva.

  • My RE said it's ok to use Abreva and Valtrex (I used to get cold sores ALL THE TIME and was on a maintenance dose of Valtrex for about a year, so it's in my file.)

     

  • I've been getting about one a month with this pregnancy. I use Abreva all the time with no concerns. It's such a small amount.
