Lysine is an amino acid (building block of protein). People use it to make medicine. Lysine is used for preventing and treating cold sores (caused by the virus called herpes simplex labialis). It is taken by mouth or applied directly to the skin for this use. Lysine is also taken by mouth to improve athletic performance.
There have been various studies that link cold sore and lysine treatment. These studies have claimed that lysine helps in healing and preventing cold sores. The recommended daily dose of lysine for prevention is between 1500-3000mg. If you feel an outbreak coming on, you will want to increase your dosage to 3000 mg.
