NeuroGesic Extra Greaseless Ointment x85g

NeuroGesic Extra Greaseless Ointment is a potent topical analgesic formulation containing Methyl Salicylate 15%, Menthol 5%, and Diclofenac 1.16%. This unique combination provides powerful pain relief without the greasy residue often associated with topical ointments, making it an ideal choice for those seeking effective and comfortable pain management.

Uses

NeuroGesic Extra Greaseless Ointment is primarily used for temporary relief of minor aches and pains associated with arthritis, backache, muscle strains, sprains, and bruises. It’s particularly effective for localized pain relief in joints and muscles, offering a non-systemic alternative to oral pain medications.

Benefits

• Provides fast-acting, localized pain relief
• The greaseless formula for comfortable application
• Combines cooling and warming sensations for enhanced effect
• It may reduce inflammation in affected areas
• Non-systemic treatment with minimal risk of internal side effects
• It can be used alongside other pain management strategies
• Easily applied to specific pain points
• May improve mobility and flexibility in affected areas

How It Works

Methyl Salicylate acts as a counterirritant, creating a warming sensation that helps mask pain signals. Menthol provides a cooling effect and may help numb the area. Diclofenac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), works to reduce inflammation and pain when absorbed through the skin. Together, these ingredients provide a multi-faceted approach to pain relief.

Dosage

Apply a thin layer of NeuroGesic Extra Greaseless Ointment to the affected area and gently massage until absorbed. Use 3-4 times daily or as directed by a healthcare professional. Wash hands thoroughly after application unless treating hands. Do not apply to wounds or damaged skin.

Side Effects

While generally well-tolerated, some users may experience mild skin irritation, redness, or itching at the application site. Serious side effects are rare but may include severe skin reactions or allergic responses. If you experience any unusual or severe reactions, discontinue use and seek medical attention.

Warning

For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes, mucous membranes, or sensitive areas. Do not use on large areas of the body or for extended periods without medical advice. If pain persists or worsens after 7 days of use, consult a healthcare professional. Do not use heating pads or occlusive dressings over the treated area.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before using NeuroGesic Extra Greaseless Ointment. While topical application generally poses lower risks than oral medications, the safety of these ingredients during pregnancy and lactation has not been fully established.

Interaction

• May increase the risk of bleeding when used with oral anticoagulants
• Could enhance the effects of oral NSAIDs if absorbed systemically
• Potential interaction with other topical medications applied to the same area
• May interfere with certain blood pressure medications if absorbed in large amounts
• Could potentially interact with aspirin or other salicylates
