GENERAL
DOSAGE DIRECTIONS
Adults and children
12 years of age and older :
· Start
with a small amount. Apply just enough to cover the affected area and gently
massage
until fully absorbed.
Wash
hands thoroughly immediately after use. See
Repeat treatment if required not
more than 3 to 4 times daily. If condition worsens or if symptoms persist
for
more than 7 days or clear up but recur again within a few days, discontinue use
and consult a physician.
If applied twice topically, 5 to 10 minutes apart, it has a
synergistic effect for pain relief, as it can
penetrate deeper into the skin.
·
For children under the age of 12,
consult a physician.

ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION
FOR NON-CHRONIC PAIN SUCH AS FROM A STRAINED
MUSCLE
:
After initial application, some experience total pain
relief in minutes and some may have to apply TOP 2000
as needed for 1 or 2 more days. Repeat
treatment if required not more than 3 or 4 times daily for up to 7 days.
FOR CHRONIC PAIN SUCH AS FROM
ARTHRITIS
:
For
best results, apply consistently for up to 7 days, not more than 3 to 4 times a
day. There will likely be some immediate relief
but maximum or total relief may require 3-4
applications a day for up to 7 days. 1 to 2 applications per day will likely suffice after a
period of time.
CUMULATIVE
EFFECT :
Typically,
users will experience pain relief for 3-5 hours when first using
TOP 2000. A
cumulative effect occurs in the area of application, and with continued use,
TOP 2000
will provide longer lasting relief with each application, to where
one or two
applications per day will suffice.
Chronic
pain patients have reported that continued use has decreased the intensity
of recurring pain and increased the time between recurrences.
FOR
SPORTS & EXERCISE :
Use as needed before sports,
exercise or exertion on areas where pain is predictable based on experience,
i.e., where pain usually occurs during those activities, i.e., tennis elbow etc.
This may either delay the onset of pain or in some cases prevent it completely.
See
We have not had any reported cases from athletes about burning sensations, even
when sweating during exercise or any other strenuous activity.
FOR
TREATMENT OF HANDS :
If used on hands, wash hands
thoroughly approximately 15 minutes after application. By this time TOP
2000 will have been completely
absorbed and can be effective for pain relief.
FOR
TREATMENT OF POST SHINGLE PAIN :
