🩺 Clinical
This is a topical patch designed for temporary pain relief and is sold over-the-counter under FDA's OTC monograph rules. It contains menthol and capsaicin, two active ingredients commonly used in pain relief products applied to the skin. Menthol typically produces a cooling sensation, while capsaicin, derived from hot peppers, is commonly used to help reduce pain signals in localized areas. Together, these ingredients are intended to provide temporary relief from minor aches and discomfort when applied directly to the skin.
