Ibuprofen

For effective, topical pain relief treatment, Ibuprofen Gel 10% is a great choice. A simple application of the gel absorbs into the skin and directly targets the pain of inflamed areas. There are many conditions that can gain benefits from using Ibuprofen gel, including:

• Backache
• Rheumatic pain
• Muscular pain
• Sprains
• Strains
• Other arthritic conditions

Ibuprofen gel is a painkiller which can be used to alleviate pain and inflammation. Used topically, Ibuprofen gel is an effective treatment for many common conditions including arthritic conditions and certain kinds of sports related injuries.

Gently rub the gel into your skin for symptomatic relief. The gel will be absorbed into your body’s underlying tissue, reducing pain and inflammation directly and locally. Ibuprofen gel works almost immediately, soothing and cooling any inflammation in the area.

Ibuprofen is such an effective treatment because it blocks a substance in your body known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX). By inhibiting the action of COX, your body stops producing certain chemicals, some of these are called prostaglandins. When you get injured or contract certain diseases and conditions, your body creates prostaglandins which create pain and inflammation. Because Ibuprofen blocks these chemicals, your pain and inflammation is reduced.

When Ibuprofen gel is used topically, it is able to provide local treatment of pain and inflammation. By treating the source of the pain directly you will get quick and effective relief, without the side effects associated with taking painkillers in tablet form.

Ibuprofen gel has been specifically formulated by medical professionals in the UK to penetrate the skin directly at problem areas.
