KES 27
Pack: 1's
A triple-action, fast-absorbing topical gel designed for quick relief from acute muscle pain, joint stiffness, sprains, and sports injuries. Formulated with Diclofenac, Methyl Salicylate, and Menthol to provide an immediate cooling sensation followed by deep, targeted anti-inflammatory relief directly at the site of pain.
Rufenac Gel 20g is a clinically formulated, rapid-acting topical analgesic and anti-inflammatory emulgel engineered by Shalina Healthcare. Specifically designed to provide targeted pain management, Rufenac bypasses the need for oral pain pills, offering a safer alternative for individuals who suffer from sensitive stomachs or are managing multi-medication routines. Its advanced formulation features a powerful, clinically proven triple-action synergy that tackles pain, reduces swelling, and counteracts tissue stiffness directly at the site of trauma or inflammation.
The Triple-Action Scientific Mechanism
Unlike basic topical rubs, Rufenac relies on three distinct active agents that work simultaneously to block pain signals and accelerate tissue recovery:
1. Diclofenac Diethylamine (1.16% w/w): A potent Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID) that quickly penetrates the skin to inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, directly cutting off the synthesis of prostaglandins responsible for inflammatory swelling, throbbing pain, and localized heat.
2. Methyl Salicylate (3.0% w/w): Functions as a deep-penetrating counter-irritant. It dilates local blood vessels, inducing a warming sensation that boosts regional microcirculation to flush out built-up inflammatory waste products while soothing tight, spasming muscle fibers.
3. Menthol (2.0% w/w):Provides immediate sensory relief. Upon application, it stimulates the skin’s cold-receptors to produce a cooling, numbing sensation that distracts the nervous system from underlying pain signals.
Clinical Indications & Therapeutic Uses
Traumatic Musculoskeletal Injuries: Provides instant management for acute sports injuries, accidental ligament sprains, muscle twists, severe strains, and painful contusions (bruises).
Chronic Joint Diseases: Effectively alleviates localized pain and reduces joint swelling associated with degenerative osteoarthritis of superficial joints (knees, ankles, wrists) and rheumatoid arthritis.
Soft Tissue Rheumatism: Targets inflammation in supporting structural tissues, offering relief for tendonitis, bursitis, and severe lower back strains.
