Overview Nu Patch
Joint and muscle pain, along with swelling, find relief with NuPatch. Effective for various injuries including sprains, strains, and contusions, it also targets conditions like tendonitis (for example, tennis elbow) and osteoarthritis. Apply NuPatch to the affected area 2 to 4 times daily, depending on severity, rubbing it in gently and evenly. Avoid overuse and don't bandage or plaster the treated skin. While generally safe, potential side effects include skin rash, itching, redness, or burning. A blistering rash might indicate a serious allergic reaction; consult your doctor immediately if this occurs. NuPatch is unsuitable for pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, and should not be used concurrently with diclofenac or similar medications.
