🩺 Clinical
Joint Formula 88 MAX PLUS CAMPHOR is a topical cream containing synthetic camphor that is typically used to provide temporary relief of minor aches and pains in muscles and joints. This is an over-the-counter monograph product, meaning it is marketed under FDA's established rules for this class of topical pain-relief products rather than through individual application review. Camphor works by creating a warming or cooling sensation on the skin that may help mask discomfort associated with minor joint and muscle soreness.
