Biofreeze Pain Relieving Gel 118 ml

Product Description:

What Menthol is used for:

This medication is used to treat minor aches and pains of the muscles/joints (such as arthritis, backache, sprains). Menthol is known as a counterirritant. It works by causing the skin to feel cool and then warm. These feelings on the skin distract you from feeling the aches/pains deeper in your muscles and joints.

Do not use If you are allergic to any of the other ingredients in this medicine.

Warnings and Precautions:

Before using this product, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to menthol; or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.

Possible side effects:
