Penetrex Side Effects & Customer Reviews

As mentioned above that the official site mentions or claims that it has no side effects but many reviews mentioned on the other site proclaim about its side effects. It is not the thing that you will not find positive review but the thing is that there is a black dot on a whole white paper.

Here, I mention just one review from a consumer, rest you can have your own search

"I was quite happy for what Penetrex offered me. It really worked as I applied the cream over my ankle and on my back and neck. But after 5 to 10 days of use I had skin rashes."

It caused a terrible rash on my knees. I used it according to the directions 3 to 4 x a day for 7 to 10 days. And voila! a most horrible rash appeared. It has taken me almost one week to recover from it. The sleepless nights and the scratching has been awful. I may be alone in this but I would never recommend it to anyone. Besides the fact that after 10 days it did absolutely nothing for my aching knees.

I know the company stands behind their product and keeps saying in the brochure that you can get a refund. I personally don't want to take the time to go through all that. I just hope that people are a little more discerning when they buy a product like this than I was.

Can't see any really improvement after using the product for six months. It may be possible that just the contact of rubbing ANY kind of pain-relieving cream on the joint multiple times during the day would have had the same result. There are much cheaper pain relieving crèmes on the market. In my case, I finally resorted to having the doctor an injection into my elbow every 6 months to totally relieve the pain.

Does Penetrex Cream Really Work?

Penetrex claims to work and treat Tennis Elbow Pain. Tennis Elbow Pain is normally said to be pain and swelling in the tendons around the elbow and arm. Thus Penetrex cream claims that Vitamin B6 is a co-enzyme that regulates the body fluid flow and thus maintains the normal nerve function. It claims that due to the deficiency of Vitamin B6 Tennis Elbow pain is started. 

Bottom Line

Penetrex claims to be a good effective product for various joint pains in a cream form. It claims to be a good combination of ingredients which helps to relieve inflammation. It mentions a detail description about its ingredient but has not mentioned anything about the ingredient quantity. It claims about having no side effects but many other site states that it gives side effects such as skin rashes, itching, etc. Over the board, it is not clinically proven. So be wise before making any selection.
