Pharma Grade DMSO (Dimethyl Sulfoxide) is a very distinctive dipolar highly aprotic organic solvent with a freezing point of 64 Deg F. DMSO by itself is actually odorless, what makes Dimethyl Sulfoxide smell and taste like onions or garlic is DMS (Dimethyl Sulfide). Industrial grades of DMSO will contain DMS and therefore give off an offensive odor. Pure Pharma Grade Dimethyl Sulfoxide is distilled and purified to remove DMS and any other contaminants leaving it odorless. Dimethyl Sulfoxide, once considered a medical curiosity and now used in many regulated drug delivery and healthcare applications. The Toxicological aspects of DMSO have been studied extensively over a long period of time and it has been concluded to be a very low toxicity hazard in humans and animals via oral and parenteral routes. One of the highest concerns surrounding DMSO is that it can take everything through the skin. While DMSO by itself can penetrate fairly easily through the skin and does enhance the adsorption rates of some chemical compounds, it does not have a universal ability to take just anything through the barrier properties of human skin. Despite the past history, Dimethyl Sulfoxide is proven to be a safe versatile material. It should also be understood that when water is present as a cosolvent in DMSO the penetration kinetics are much lower.

Wonderful topical for inflammation
Was so happy to see that I was able to get some DMSO! Used to be really hard to find years ago. I was a veterinary technician back in the day and we used it for certain applications. I now have rheumatoid and multiple joint problems that go along with it. This gel is great for topical use on inflamed joints and works wonders. I have even added some anti-inflammatory essential oils to the gel with (just a few drops) which adds even more benefits. It absorbs very quickly and I advise to use either a cotton tipped swab to apply or use gloves unless you do not mind a slight garlic/metallic taste. Highly recommend and safe to use.

Kills the pain but causes rash and itching for me
This product was amazingly effective in relieving my hip and leg pain. That's the good news. However, I seem to be one of the people who react with severe redness, stinging and itching. My skin comes to look like I have been sunburned. When that dies down, the pain relief is worth it. I am now going to try a version that includes both DMSO and Aloe Vera.

DMSO is an amazing topical pain reliever!
I have a dog with hip dysplasia. This helps her a ton on those days when her glucosamine supplements do not appear to be enough. I just rub a tiny amount over her sore hip, and she is usually moving around much better after a couple minutes of me applying it.

Great 👍
GF had me get one for her and me. Hoping this one doesn't burn like the last one did. For some reason it was way too potent the last time we purchased the medigel.
