Movelat Gel contains the active ingredient Mucopolysaccharide polysulphate. This ingredient blocks the production of a chemical released by your body called prostaglandin, which is responsible for the pain caused by inflammation and swelling during and after an injury or disease. This ingredient also helps dissolve blood clots and improves the blood supply to the skin.

Movelat Gel also contains Salicylic Acid, which helps the first active ingredient, Mucopolysaccharide, penetrate through the skin, enabling it to perform quicker and at a greater intensity. It does this by breaking down the protein, Keratin, in the skin structure, allowing the active ingredient, Mucopolysaccharide to pass through and get to work.

Directions

• Pierce the tube seal with the spiked top of the cap and apply 2-6 inches (5-15cm) of the gel, depending on size of injury, to the affected area.
• Apply up to four times daily.
• Do not exceed the stated dose..
