Zo Rub HP Topical Analgesic Cream 45g | Capsaicin (0.075%)

Zo Rub HP Topical Analgesic Cream 45g is a high-strength pain relief cream containing capsaicin 0.075%, a natural compound derived from chilli peppers. Capsaicin works by desensitising pain receptors in the skin, helping to relieve muscular aches, joint pain, arthritis, and nerve-related discomfort.

This topical analgesic provides warming pain relief directly at the site of application, without the need for oral medication. Regular application may help reduce the intensity of persistent pain conditions by depleting substance P, a neurotransmitter involved in transmitting pain signals.

The 45g tube is convenient for home use and provides targeted, non-greasy pain relief.
