Product Overview
Loxonin S Gel is a topical medicine formulated with the nonsteroidal analgesic anti-inflammatory ingredient “loxoprofen sodium hydrate,” which inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX) involved in the production of prostaglandins that cause pain and inflammation. It is applied directly to the affected area for the analgesic and anti-inflammatory purposes officially indicated for symptoms such as shoulder pain associated with stiff shoulders, joint pain, muscle pain, lower back pain, bruises, and sprains. As a gel, it spreads easily on the affected area and is colorless and clear so it is less noticeable after application. As a Class 1 OTC drug, please consult a pharmacist before purchase and use.
