Pain relief composition
View Patent ↗Disclosed is a pain relief composition comprising an effective amount of a nerve inhibiting component, including capsaicin, a capsaicinoid or a capsaicin analogue, which numbs or inhibits the nerve endings that signal pain, in combination with at least one of the following: an effective amount of an inflammation control component which is designed to reduce immediate pain and discourage future pain in the joints and muscles; an effective amount of a cooling component; an effective amount of a heat minimizing or blocking component; an effective amount of a circulation increasing component which effectuates better penetration of the actives to the skin and nerves; and an effective amount of a soothing and anti-inflammatory complex for the joints and/or muscles comprising Glucosamine sulfate or HCl, Zingiber officiniale (Ginger Root) extract, Methyl sulfonylmethane (MSM), Polygonum cuspidatum (Mexican Bamboo) extract, Aloe barbadensis leaf, and Salix alba (white willow) bark extract. Additionally, the composition includes an encapsulation or entrapment system for a timed release delivery.
1. A topical pain relief composition comprising:
a) an effective amount of a pain relieving component selected from the group consisting of capsaicin, a capsaicinoid, a capsaicin analogue, and combinations thereof;
b) an effective amount of an inflammation control component which is designed to reduce immediate pain and discourage future pain in the joints and muscles;
c) an effective amount of a cooling component comprising approximately between 0.5-20% of a mixture containing menthyl lactate, ethyl menthane carboxamide, and methyl diisopropyl propionamide, and approximately between 0.1-10% of menthone glycerin acetal;
d) an effective amount of a heat absorbing component;
e) an effective amount of a circulation increasing component which effectuates better penetration of the active components to the skin and nerves; and
f) an effective amount of a soothing and anti-inflammatory complex for the joints and/or muscles comprising Glucosamine, Zingiber off'iciniale (Ginger Root) extract, Methyl sulfonylmethane (MSM), Polygonum cuspidatum (Mexican Bamboo) extract, Aloe barbadensis leaf, and Salix alba (white willow) bark extract, wherein at least a portion of said composition, including at least a portion of said pain relieving component, is entrapped in a delivery system comprising particles having an average particle size of less than 100 microns, said delivery system effectuating an extended and time controlled release of the entrapped composition at the site of pain, to mitigate discomfort associated with capsaicin and enhance the efficiency of the entrapped active components.
