Capsaicin (0.025% w/w) + Methyl Salicylate (5% w/w) + Gabapentin (5% w/w) + Diclofenac (4% w/w)
Active composition
+3 more active ingredients
Gabapentin binds to the alpha-2-delta subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels, inhibiting excitatory neurotransmitter release and reducing neuronal excitability.
Diclofenac inhibits COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, leading to decreased synthesis of prostaglandins, which mediate pain and inflammation.
Medical applications
Gabafen Ointment is a topical formulation combining Capsaicin (0.025% w/w), Diclofenac (4% w/w), Gabapentin (5% w/w), and Methyl Salicylate (5% w/w) designed to provide effective relief from various musculoskeletal and neuropathic pain conditions. Capsaicin acts by depleting substance P, a neuropeptide involved in transmitting pain signals, thereby reducing localized pain sensations. Diclofenac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), helps alleviate inflammation and swelling associated with conditions such as arthritis, sprains, and strains. Gabapentin, known for its efficacy in neuropathic pain management, modulates nerve excitability and reduces abnormal nerve signaling. Methyl Salicylate provides a counterirritant effect, producing a warming sensation that distracts from deeper musculoskeletal pain and enhances blood flow to the affected area. Together, these active ingredients offer a multi-modal approach to pain relief, targeting inflammation, nerve pain, and muscle discomfort. Gabafen Ointment is intended for external use only and should be applied as directed to the affected area, avoiding contact with eyes and mucous membranes. It is suitable for adults experiencing chronic or acute pain due to conditions like osteoarthritis, neuropathy, muscle strains, or joint pain. Consult a healthcare professional before use, especially if pregnant, breastfeeding, or on other medications.
