WHAT ANTI- ITCH
CREAM
IS USED FOR
To soothe and relief of pain and itch
associated with mosquito and insect
bites.
HOW ANTI- ITCH
CREAM
WORKS
It contains methyl salicylate, menthol
and camphor. Camphor is a stimulant,
rubefacient, antipruritic and feebly
antiseptic. When in combination with
other ingredient like menthol and methyl
salicylate, it becomes ideal for neuralgia
and other painful areas. Menthol
_ _
dilates
the blood vessels causing a sensation of
coldness, followed by an analgesic
effect. Menthol also acts as a penetration
enhancer, increasing the penetration of
drugs when applied on the skin, to give a
faster onset of action. Methyl salicylate
is a salicylic acid derivative. Salicylates
inhibit cyclooxygenase, thereby reducing
the formation of prostaglandins and
cause platelet dysfunction. Methyl
salicylate is used topically as a counter
irritant. Upon application, it is absorbed
through the skin and is applied for the
relief of rheumatic pain and muscle or
joints pain.
