About Movelat Cream & Gel

What is Movelat Cream & Gel?

Movelat Cream & Gel is a topical medication designed to relieve pain and inflammation. It comes in two forms: a cream and a gel. Both forms contain the same active ingredients, which work together to provide effective relief from discomfort. The cream and gel are easy to apply and absorb quickly into the skin, making them convenient for everyday use.

What is Movelat Cream & Gel used for?

Movelat Cream & Gel is primarily used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with musculoskeletal conditions. These conditions include muscle pain, joint pain, and soft tissue injuries such as sprains and strains. The medication can also help reduce swelling and improve mobility in the affected area. In addition to these uses, Movelat Cream & Gel may be recommended for other conditions as advised by your doctor or pharmacist.

How does Movelat Cream & Gel work?

Movelat Cream & Gel works by combining two active ingredients: mucopolysaccharide polysulfate (MPS) and salicylic acid. MPS helps to reduce inflammation and improve blood flow to the affected area, which aids in the healing process. Salicylic acid acts as a mild analgesic and anti-inflammatory agent, helping to alleviate pain and reduce swelling. When applied to the skin, these ingredients penetrate the underlying tissues, providing targeted relief from pain and inflammation.

Who is Movelat Cream & Gel suitable for?

Movelat Cream & Gel is suitable for adults and children over the age of 12 who are experiencing pain and inflammation due to musculoskeletal conditions. It is ideal for those who prefer a topical treatment over oral medications. However, Movelat Cream & Gel may not be suitable for everyone. Do not use this medication if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor or pharmacist before using Movelat Cream & Gel. Additionally, avoid using the cream or gel on broken or irritated skin.
