About METHYL SALICYLATE+MENTHOL+CAMPHOR+CAPSAICIN+DICLOFENAC+EUCALYPTUS OIL

METHYL SALICYLATE+MENTHOL+CAMPHOR+CAPSAICIN+DICLOFENAC+EUCALYPTUS OIL is a combination medicine used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with musculoskeletal disorders, strain, sprain, arthritis, and low back pain. Musculoskeletal pain could occur due to arthritis, osteoporosis, fractures, dislocations, problems with the bone structure or injury to the bones, joints, tendons, muscles and ligaments. Arthritis is a joint disease in which the two ends of the joints come together due to breakdown of a protective covering called cartilage.

METHYL SALICYLATE+MENTHOL+CAMPHOR+CAPSAICIN+DICLOFENAC+EUCALYPTUS OIL contains Diclofenac, Capsaicin, Methyl salicylate, Eucalyptus oil, Camphor and Menthol. Diclofenac and Methyl salicylate work by blocking the effect of chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Capsaicin exerts an analgesic effect by blocking the pain messengers of the nerves. Eucalyptus oil helps in reducing inflammation. Camphor and Menthol provide a cooling sensation by dilating the blood vessels, followed by an analgesic effect. Together, METHYL SALICYLATE+MENTHOL+CAMPHOR+CAPSAICIN+DICLOFENAC+EUCALYPTUS OIL helps in providing relief from pain.
