Vanterin Kowagel Lt 35G Kowa [Class 2 Drug]

¥1209

Vanterin Kowagel LT is a local penetrating drug containing indomethacin, an ingredient that relieves muscle and joint pain.
When you use this drug on areas with pain such as shoulders, hips, elbows, knees, hands and feet, the active ingredient indomethacin penetrates one after another and removes the pain from the affected area.
In addition, this drug uses a tear-resistant laminate tube (Econotube) that makes it easy to remove the contents and make it easier to use until the end.
[Correct usage of containers]
1) The inside of the nozzle is sealed as shown.
2) When using it for the first time, insert the protrusion on the top of the cap straight into the nozzle hole and punch a hole in the internal seal.

●As this is a soft formulation, if you press the tube too hard, the formulation may pop out, so please do not squeeze the tube too tightly.
●After use, wipe off any remaining chemicals from the nozzle and be careful not to let the chemicals adhere to the surrounding area.
●Be sure to tightly close the cap after use.
