Indications
Cream: Our combined formulation, Freezy, offers temporary relief from minor muscle and joint aches associated with various conditions such as backache, lumbago, strains, bruises, sprains, arthritis, rheumatic pain, as well as pain of tendons and ligaments. Numerous double-blind clinical trials have demonstrated Freezy’s efficacy in alleviating minor skeletal muscle stress and arthritis pain, thanks to its active ingredients Methyl Salicylate and Menthol.
Nasal Inhaler Stick: Indicated for relieving nasal congestion or blockage.
Composition
Cream: Each gram of Freezy cream contains:
- Methyl Salicylate BP 300 mg
- Menthol BP 100 mg
- Camphor BP 40 mg
Nasal Inhaler Stick: Each gram contains extracts of:
- Wintergreen oil (as Methyl salicylate) 122.70 mg
- Mentha Piperita (as Menthol) 415.40 mg
- Cinnamomum Camphora (as Camphor) 415.40 mg
Pharmacology
Cream: Freezy’s ingredients work synergistically to reduce pain. Camphor exhibits spasmolytic action on smooth muscle, reducing muscle spasm by decreasing Ca2+ influx. It also raises the pain threshold, making pain stimuli less likely to be transmitted to the brain. Menthol provides a cooling and soothing effect by stimulating cold receptors, while Methyl Salicylate inhibits cyclooxygenase enzyme, reducing prostaglandin synthesis and thus pain sensation.
Nasal Inhaler Stick: Menthol and Camphor act as decongestants, unblocking congested noses and reducing throat irritation. Wintergreen Oil aids in germ elimination and provides relief from illness symptoms.
