Introduction About OMNI HOT GEL
Omni Hot Gel is a topical gel used to provide relief from acute musculoskeletal pain and osteoarthritis (joint pain) of the joints amenable to topical management. It contains diclofenac, methyl salicylate, capsaicin, virgin linseed oil, and menthol as active ingredients that work together to relieve aches and pains.
Diclofenac and methyl salicylate reduces the formation of prostaglandins (certain chemicals which are responsible to cause pain and swelling in the joints). Capsaicin helps to block the pain messages to nerves. Menthol dilates the blood vessels causing a sensation of coldness, followed by a pain-relieving effect.
Always use Omni Hot Gel exactly as directed by your physician. It is for external use only. Avoid direct application into nostrils, eyes and mucous membranes. Do not apply external heat or occlusive dressings in the managed joints. Avoid exposure of managed joint to normal or artificial sunlight. It should not be used on broken or irritated skin.
