What to do if i need a good remedy for fever blister. i am using abreva, but mine are always very bad!?

Anti-virals: If you get really bad or frequent fever blisters then the best treatment is to go on chronic suppressive therapy. This is where you take a single anti-viral pill a day for a year to suppress the virus enough that you no longer get the breakouts.
