Yes, I take several vitamins. I was told I was lacking in my b vitamins. Hmm I don't take riboflavin. I'll try that. Thanks soo much. Do your lips crack to? The sides of your lips I mean.

Please forgive me for not getting to my email any sooner. I do not know, nor have gone on the quest in search of the cream, but I promise, I will ask pharmacist tomorrow! Yes, my lips crack open at the corners. Seems like it takes a month for them to get well! I haven't had this happen this year...Lucky I guess...Or the hershey kisses ward them off!!!! I'll be back and let you guys know for sure soon as I find out! I do use carmex to keep them greased from splitting more. Stay turned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
