1.4 How does it work and what effect does it give?
The symptomatic therapeutic effect of the Doctor Pepper patch is achieved through two mechanisms: an irritant mechanism of action and an anti-inflammatory one. Together, both of these mechanisms give an impressive result, but only with moderate pain.
“Irritation” means distraction nervous system patient from recording pain in the primary pathological focus. The adhesive plaster causes a moderate burning sensation at the site of attachment and thereby “diverts” the brain’s attention to it, which is why primary focus the pain will subside.
The second mechanism is more powerful. This is where analgin comes into play, which has both an analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect. Pain is relieved by blocking the passage of signals through nerve ganglia, and due to the elimination of inflammatory processes.
However, analgin is a fairly low-power painkiller, and the reduction in pain due to the reduction inflammatory phenomena also does not have the desired effect in case of severe pain. That is, the patch can be used only for moderate pain.
2 Instructions for use of the Doctor Peretz patch
The Doctor Pepper patch is quite easy to use. The first step is to remove the protective film from the sticky side of the adhesive plaster, and then secure the plaster itself to the area of the skin where the painful sensations and/or inflammatory processes.
It is advisable to place the adhesive plaster exactly in the center of the pathological focus (where the pain is most pronounced). If the area of the pathological focus is too large, use two patches, placing them side by side.
However, more than two adhesive plasters cannot be used due to the risk of developing an allergic or contact dermatitis. Also, if too large an area is covered with an adhesive plaster, a serious superficial burn may develop, followed by necrotization and rejection of the skin flaps.
