Medicinal Benefits:
Rapid Gel contains Diclofenac and Methyl salicylate (as a pain killer), Linseed oil (as an anti-inflammatory), and Menthol (as a cooling agent). Rapid Gel works by first cooling the skin and warming it up, interfering with the pain signal transmission through nerves. Together Rapid Gel works by blocking the release of chemical messengers that causes pain and inflammation with redness and swelling.
Rapid Gel is a topical analgesic (pain killer) primarily used to relieve acute musculoskeletal pain and pain of osteoarthritis of joints. It reduces pain, swelling, and stiffness, improving your ability to move and flex the joint.
