Locally. Treatment should be started by applying a small amount of the drug to a small area of ​​the skin to assess the individual response. The individual reaction to the drug can differ significantly: for some people it will be enough to apply a small amount of the cream in order to produce the necessary warming effect, while for others the warming effect will be negligible or absent.

It is necessary to start the application with the lowest dose of the drug. For this, a dose of the drug in the form of a strip of cream 2 cm long is applied to the appropriate area of ​​the skin the size of a palm with light rubbing movements.

To enhance the therapeutic effect, the area of ​​the skin to which the drug is applied can be covered with a woolen cloth.

With repeated use, the reaction to the cream may decrease, which requires an increase in the dose, which is selected individually. If necessary, the cream is used up to 3 times a day.

For preliminary warming up of muscles before physical exercises, sports competitions, it is recommended to rub in the cream about 30 minutes before their start.

In the absence of the desired effect within 10 days, you should consult a specialist.

After applying the drug to the skin, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.

Do not take a hot bath or shower before or after applying the drug to the skin.
