Ibuleve Pain Relief Gel Ibuprofen
Ibuleve Pain Relief Gel features the clinically proven painkilling power of Ibuleve in a formula designed to bring fast, local relief. A published clinical study has shown Ibuleve gel can work as fast and effectively as ibuprofen pills (compared to 400mg ibuprofen tablets).
An easily absorbed gel with a clear, pleasant-to-use, fragrance-free formula. Formulated by experts in skin penetrating medicines, Ibuleve effectively delivers pain relief through the skin to the underlying tissues, while working to reduce swelling and inflammation.
Ibuleve Pain Relief 5% Gel offers effective relief from the pain and inflammation of backache and other muscular pains, rheumatic pain, aches, swellings, sprains, strains and sports injuries.
Osteoarthritic pain
Osteoarthritis is one of the most common forms of arthritis in the UK. It’s a long-term condition that cannot be cured. It usually develops gradually and some people experience pain that becomes steadily worse. This is common in large joints like hips, shoulders and knees. Many people also suffer with it in their hands.
Sprains and strains
Sprains and strains are injuries to the soft tissues around joints. ‘Strains’ normally refers to damage to muscles. We tend to use ‘sprains’ to describe injuries to ligaments. A lot of sprains and strains happen during sport, when we subject our joints and muscles to extra stress.
Rheumatoid arthritis
Unlike osteoarthritis, which is from wear and tear on the joints, this is a disease that leads to swelling in the joint. Since there is presently no cure for rheumatoid arthritis, managing pain is an important part of living with the condition.
Back pain
It’s not surprising that so many people suffer with back pain, either occasionally or chronically. The back has no fewer than 149 joints, each with its own cluster of tendons, ligaments and muscles. Yet we often subject this complex structure to heavy loads and stresses.
