Description
A Capsaicin Patch is a topical pain relief treatment containing capsaicin, the active compound derived from chili peppers. Capsaicin works by interacting with TRPV1 pain receptors in the skin, gradually reducing their sensitivity and helping decrease the transmission of pain signals.
This warming patch is designed for localized external use.
Uses & Indications
Traditionally used to help support relief from:
• Neuropathic pain (nerve-related discomfort)
• Post-herpetic neuralgia (pain after shingles)
• Peripheral neuropathy (including diabetic neuropathy)
• Musculoskeletal pain (back pain, joint discomfort, muscle tension)
• Mild arthritis-related stiffness
Higher-concentration capsaicin products are typically administered under medical supervision, while lower-strength patches are commonly used for general muscle and joint support.
How It Works
• Capsaicin activates TRPV1 receptors in the skin.
• With repeated exposure, these receptors become desensitized, reducing the perception of pain.
• Produces a warming sensation that may help increase local comfort.
Ingredients
• Capsaicin (pepper extract) – active ingredient
• Adhesive patch base with supportive excipients
Concentration varies by manufacturer. Always check the product label.
How to Use
• Apply to clean, dry skin over the affected area.
• Press firmly to ensure good contact.
• Leave in place as directed (often 8–24 hours depending on instructions).
