Pharmacological action
Mataren ® Plus has an anti-inflammatory, analgesic, decongestant effect. May cause mild local hyperemia of the skin, without exerting a pronounced irritant effect on the skin.
Mataren ® Plus reduces pain in the joints (including the joints of the spine) and in the muscles at rest and during movement, helps to increase the volume of movement of the joints (in the area of the cream). Reduces morning stiffness and swelling of the joints.
Meloxicam selectively inhibits cyclooxygenase 2, disrupts the metabolism of arachidonic acid, and reduces the number of prostaglandins (mediators of pain and inflammation) in the focus of inflammation.
Tincture of capsicum contains capsaicin, which has an irritating effect on sensitive skin receptors, which leads to a local analgesic effect, to improve blood circulation in the skin and subcutaneous tissue. Improving local blood flow is accompanied by increased circulation in the underlying tissues, which helps to remove the substrate of inflammation from the pathological focus.
When combined with meloxicam and capsaicin, they have a greater effect due to synergism compared to the individual effect of each of these components.
Thanks to the optimal combination of components, Mataren ® Plus has an enhanced analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect.
