Ketoprofen 20%, Capsaicin 0.075% (Fix-it PRO) 50G
Fix it PRO cream is specifically designed to target the site of pain directly. This medication is applied topically and therefore, will not circulate through the entire body. This means you have powerful pain medication where you need it the most while avoiding many of the complications common to oral medications. When using this medication you should massage it gently into the affected area and avoid washing or showering for about an hour after application.
Ketoprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by reducing substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation. When applied topically, it reduces pain receptor sensitivity. Our compounded fix it cream is used to help with mild to moderate pain or signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis or general muscle aches and pains. This medication is a convenient and effective solution for a variety of pain related conditions.
An open-label, single dose pharmacokinetic study was designed to determine the concerntrations of ketoprofen in the semitendinosus muscle/tendon and plasma after topical application or oral administration to patients scheduled for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction that results shows that topically applied ketoprofen induced rapid and sustained delivery to the underlying tissues without a significant increase of the plasma drug concentration. This shows that topical application of ketoprofen provided relief while bypassing any systemic side effects.
