Made with fresh mountain daisies (Arnica montana) from the French mountains, Boiron Arnicare Gel relieves everyday muscle aches and pains without a traditional strong medicine smell. Use it at the first sign of back, neck, knee, shoulder, and leg pain; swelling from injuries; and on bruises.* The gel cools and refreshes upon contact. Its non-greasy, water-based formula is absorbed quickly by the skin, leaving no residue.
A homeopathic medicine, Arnicare Gel does not contain menthol, camphor, methyl salicylate, capsaicin, fragrances, dyes, or parabens. It does not mask symptoms that may indicate a more serious condition. Arnicare Gel is available over the counter in 1.5 oz and 2.6 oz tubes and a 4.2 oz value-size tubes.
Boiron’s pain relief line includes a cream, ointment, tablet, and arthritis pain formula.
