Capsaicin

An active ingredient in chili peppers, it works by depleting the body's supply of substance p, a chemical that transmits pain signals to the brain.

Relief of pain and inflammation associated with musculoskeletal conditions like:

Osteoarthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis

Back pain

Neck pain

Sprains and strains

Muscle aches and stiffness

This drug combination works by targeting different aspects of pain and inflammation. Diclofenac Diethylamine reduces inflammation and pain by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, which are chemicals that cause pain and swelling. Capsaicin desensitizes pain receptors by depleting substance P, a neurotransmitter that transmits pain signals to the brain. Menthol and camphor provide a cooling or warming sensation on the skin, which can distract from pain and help to relax muscles.
