Do you think that i could keep getting cold sores if i keep taking creatine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: It is unlikely that normal supplementation with creatine is causing your recurrent cold sore outbreak. If it is problematic see your dermatologist to discuss daily suppressive therapy.
