Maxolin Gel
Prescription RequiredProduct introduction
Maxolin Gel helps ease muscle and joint pain. It combines ingredients that reduce swelling, relax stiff muscles, and block pain signals. The warming and soothing effect helps you move more comfortably and feel relief from everyday aches and soreness.
For best results, use Maxolin Gel exactly as directed and apply it to the affected area regularly. Avoid using it on broken skin or near the eyes. Wash your hands after applying. Consistent use helps maintain pain relief and supports faster recovery from muscle or joint discomfort.
Some people may experience mild side effects such as a burning or stinging sensation, itching, irritation, or redness at the site of application. These effects are usually temporary and tend to fade as your skin adjusts to the medication.
Avoid using Maxolin Gel on broken, infected, or irritated skin. Do not apply it to open wounds or near the eyes, mouth, or mucous membranes.

How Maxolin Gel works
Maxolin Gel is a combination of diclofenac diethylamine, methyl salicylate, eucalyptus oil, menthol, camphor, and capsaicin. Diclofenac diethylamine and methyl salicylate reduce pain and inflammation by blocking prostaglandin synthesis. Menthol and camphor create a cooling sensation that eases discomfort. Eucalyptus oil provides a mild anti-inflammatory and soothing effect. Capsaicin works by desensitizing pain receptors, lowering pain signals over time. Together, they provide effective and long-lasting relief from muscle and joint pain.
