for Pain Relief 2 OZ Capsaicin .1% High Potency/ Maximum Strength

I learned about Capzix from my Mom, she has bad neuropathy pains and loves it. I used it on my knee pain when I run, works great! Can burn a little when exercising or working out. Takes a bit of time for it to work but when it does it’s great for pain and is hard to find. Highly recommended!

I have shoulder issues & my orthopedist suggested I purchase capsaicin cream. I stumbled upon this item & so glad I did. This cream is way better than biofreeze. Yes, it burns a little, but it feels really good. I started off using a very small pea-sized amount to see where my comfort level was. I can use about a nickel size amount with no major burning issues. I can feel it penetrating far better than any other cream I've tried. There is no sticky residue & it absorbs fairly quickly. I do use a glove to apply as I don't want to take any chances getting this in my eyes. I highly recommend to anyone who needs deeper muscular heat. Thank you so much.

Once it was applied I started feeling the heat and slight burn but it was tolerable. Burns much more than Icy Hot. I applied it around 11:30 or 12pm. I was running around all day and I did notice when my body temp went up that I could feel it burning again. BUT it was still tolerable. Once I got home around 8pm I went and took a shower. I didn't notice it in the shower as much really but once I got out, my skin was on FIRE. It was very red where the cream was applied and it was NOT a tolerable burn anymore. I had to get ice packs and apply those for about 2 hours before it was tolerable again. The next morning I showered again and noticed this time when the water hit my skin that it burned a bit but not like before. And once I got out of the shower it was just a slight burn. I would put up with the burning IF it worked for the pain. My pain is much much worse than the burn but all it did was burn on top of my pain so definitely not worth it for me.

I am into week 4 of shingles on my left arm. On the advice of a pharmacist and GP I ordered this. Most of my rash is dry and healing (at that purple stage) but I still have significant pain and post itching all over my arm. I received this in the mail. Well I recommend trying on a small patch of skin first because within seconds my arm was on fire and painful everywhere...even after I washed it off and dabbed it dry. It took almost an hour before it subsided. I don't have any itching or pain now at all on my arm. Supposedly the pain and burning will subside with continued use...for me not sure I will continue as the burning and pain was intense. Maybe a lower dosage would be better

I ordered this for my husband to try to help his neuropathy in his legs. We have tried every cream on the market already and nothing has really helped. I put this on his legs after trying a small amount the night before which didn’t get any reaction. He was calling me by lunch time saying his legs were on fire! I just put a thin layer on his legs. He had to go the restroom and wash his legs off with soap and water. But the heat didn’t make his pain in his legs lessen at all. So I’m not sure what this cream would help.

I was looking for a replacement of the original Capsaicin in a red tube. I've tried several. Most aren't as good. This one is great. I absorbs quickly.

I've used Capsaicin creams for many years as the itch feeling you my experience with peripheral neuropathy can quickly be taken care of by using it. This particular uses more Capsaicin than most so I only use it for small problem areas. The high capsaicin content can burn if used too much or over too large an area. If you need or want the higher capsaicin content, this is a great product. Just use with care.

I've tried all kinds of capsaicin cream. I don't find it any hotter than the others. I do apply with a glove as it is still made from chili peppers. But I don't see where it truly helps on my neck pain from nerve damage. It doesn't take down stiff and sore muscles. I've used all kinds of the stuff and I don't find it to be so hot. I have tender and sensitive skin as well, so I thought it might get pretty hot from the reviews but it was not very hot at all. I'm probably going to see if my doctor can recommend a better one. I had used zostrix from a prescription for it once long ago and it was much hotter and I did find relief but it is not made any longer so possibly he knows another brand that is hot and will work cause it does take the heat in the chili peppers to work well. Didn't make the skin red or anything but it was a very very slight heat but very weak. It's not returnable so check before buying. It's like very mild peppers and not any that were hot cause it's not hot on sensitive skin and I am elderly as well and I normally have to be careful with using capsaicin cream but not this one. It's not much more than a regular cream. Not to me anyway but I do use a glove so I don't get it in my eyes and I touched my mouth once and it did burn a little bit cause it was wet. Maybe it was because I have used prescription strength before and then it's probably totally different.
