first appear.

Denavir (Penciclovir Cream) should be applied to cold sore lesions every 2 hours while awake for a period of four days, unless otherwise directed by your doctor. Denavir should be used to treat cold sores on the lips and face only. For best results, treatment with Denavir should begin as soon as possible after the symptoms of a cold sore appear.
Continue to use Denavir (Penciclovir Cream) and talk to your doctor if you experience: headache; local numbness or tingling where the cream is applied; changes in taste; rash; or irritation at the application site.
Do not apply Denavir to the inside of the nose or in or near the eyes, as it may cause irritation.
Do not use other topical medications to treat the same area at them same time as Denavir, unless otherwise directed by your physician.
If you miss a dose of Denavir (Penciclovir Cream), use the missed dose as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the dose you missed and use only your next regularly scheduled dose.
