Abreva for herpes sores

I have been thinking of using abreva for my herpetic sores. What side effects should I watch out for?

When first used, Abreva may cause redness, swelling or excessive dryness of skin. In rare cases, individuals may develop an allergic reaction to the drug. This may present as a skin rash, difficulty breathing, itching or swelling. To avoid the dryness, use it with a water based moisturizer. Personally i think this is a rip off medication-avoid it. Complete waste of money.
