MyoFlex Extra Strength Deep Penetrating Pain Relief Rub

MyoFlex Extra Strength Deep Penetrating Pain Relief Rub is a topical analgesic designed for temporary relief of pain associated with muscles, joints, tendons, and ligaments. 

Active Ingredient:

• Triethanolamine salicylate 15%: This is a type of salicylate that works similarly to aspirin to reduce pain and inflammation.

Uses:

• Targets pain associated with:
  • Muscle aches and stiffness (e.g., from exercise or overuse)
  • Back pain
  • Strains and sprains (minor)
  • Arthritis (may help manage discomfort, not a cure)
  • Tendinitis (inflammation of tendons)

Suitable For:

• Adults and children over 2 years old (dosage may vary, confirm on the label).

Benefits:

• Deep Penetration: The formula is designed to penetrate deep into muscle tissue to reach the source of pain.
• Pain Relief: Triethanolamine salicylate helps reduce pain and inflammation.
• Over-the-Counter: Available without a prescription for minor pain relief.
• Odorless and Greaseless: Unlike some pain relief rubs, MyoFlex is designed to be odorless and not leave a greasy residue.

Considerations:

• Strength: "Extra Strength" indicates a higher concentration of the active ingredient compared to regular MyoFlex products. It may not be suitable for everyone, especially those with sensitive skin.
• Skin Irritation: Salicylates can irritate the skin, especially on sensitive areas or broken skin. Do a patch test on a small area of skin before applying it more liberally.
• Not for Everyone: People with certain skin conditions, allergies to salicylates, pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before use. People taking blood thinners should also consult a doctor before use, as salicylates can increase bleeding risk.
• Not a Cure: This medication manages pain and inflammation but doesn't heal the underlying injury. Rest, support, and physical therapy may be necessary for recovery.

Additional Information:

• The size and amount of product may vary depending on the packaging.
• If your pain persists or worsens after using the product for a few days, consult a doctor.
