How Dicrex Gel works

Oleum lini promotes a soothing effect. Methyl salicylate provides a warming sensation that helps ease muscle stiffness, while menthol delivers a cooling effect to distract from pain. Benzyl alcohol acts as a penetration enhancer, allowing the active ingredients to work more effectively. Together, these components offer fast, targeted relief from pain.
