Introduction of Gapitas-L Gel

Gapitas-L Gel is used for the treatment of neuropathic pain. It works by cooling the skin then warming it up. This cooling and warming up action blocks the pain signal transmission through nerves to reach the brain and decreases the pain sensation.

Gapitas-L Gel is a combination of alpha 2 delta ligands (AED) and local anaesthetic (amides).
