Product Details

Capsaicin is the active compound in chili peppers that creates their characteristic heat. When applied topically, capsaicin works by temporarily depleting substance P, a neurotransmitter that sends pain signals to your brain. With repeated use, capsaicin can provide effective relief for various pain conditions.

Topical capsaicin is available as patches, creams, films, liquids, and lotions – all are applied to the skin. Varying strengths (concentrations) are available. Lower-strength products are available over the counter.

CAPSAICIN relieves minor pain in your muscles and joints. It works by making your skin feel warm or cool, which blocks pain signals going to the brain.

This medicine may be used for other purposes; ask your health care provider or pharmacist if you have questions.
