What is Doc Ibuprofen pain gel?

Doc Ibuprofen pain gel is a medicine for external use that helps with inflammation-related joint and back pain.It contains the active ingredient ibuprofen, which has an anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effect without drying out the skin.No prescription is required for this product.

Areas of application

Doc Ibuprofen pain gel can be used for various complaints, including inflammation-related back and joint problems, strains, sprains, bruises as well as swelling and inflammation of the ligaments, tendons and joints.The gel works specifically on the painful area without putting unnecessary strain on the organism.

Mode of action

The active ingredient ibuprofen inhibits the formation of prostaglandins, which play an important role in the transmission of pain and the development of inflammation.By inhibiting these tissue hormones, pain is combated in two ways: pain transmission is reduced and inflammation is combated.Doc Ibuprofen pain gel penetrates the body quickly and with a high concentration of active ingredients because the active ingredient is completely dissolved and incorporated into tiny micelles.This enables quick and deep penetration into the tissue, for example to relieve bursa and tendon inflammation.

Long-lasting effect

Doc Ibuprofen pain gel impresses with its long-lasting effect.The active ingredient ibuprofen is stored well in the subcutaneous fatty tissue, which creates a depot of the active ingredient in the body.This ensures sustainable and long-lasting effectiveness.The application is uncomplicated: a 4 to 10 centimeter long gel strand can be applied to the affected area up to 3 times a day and rubbed carefully.The microgel inhibits pain and inflammation and also has a pleasant cooling effect.
