About Penetrex:

5% Menthol is an OTC monograph active ingredient for the temporary relief of minor aches and pains of muscles and joints — including those associated with arthritis, simple backache, strains, sprains, and bruises. Apply it to the area that hurts. Within seconds, the cooling onset begins. That's not a sensation trick — that's the active ingredient working. Nothing enters your stomach. No GI irritation. No NSAIDs.

Most OTC pain creams stop at the active ingredient. We didn't. Penetrex Advanced gives you 5% Menthol — at a higher concentration than most competitors (3%) — plus the four-ingredient formula 2 million+ people already trust: Arnica for topical soothing, Vitamin B6 for skin health, MSM for area conditioning, and Boswellia Serrata for a calming experience. Five pathways. One cream. Made in the USA.

Apply it and the cooling onset hits within seconds. No greasy film. No white cast. No stained sheets or scrubs. The menthol scent is intentionally clean and subtle — nothing like the aggressive blast from old-school sports creams. Use it before work, before a meeting, or in bed. The sensation does its job. The smell doesn't announce it to the room.

Penetrex Advanced is built for the moments pain spikes — the morning your back won't cooperate, the 2am knee throb, the post-shift shoulder that needs relief now. Use it for the temporary relief of minor aches and pains of muscles and joints associated with arthritis, simple backache, strains, bruises, and sprains. For ongoing daily support, the same formula compounds with consistent use.

With a loyal customer base spanning over a decade, Penetrex has become a household name for natural topical support. Manufactured in the USA following strict quality standards, and suitable for those seeking vegan-friendly, paraben-free formulations.

What's Inside & Why It Works

Select ingredients below to learn more

 

Menthol 5%

The OTC monograph active ingredient that makes Penetrex Advanced an OTC pain reliever. Menthol is a topical analgesic from the mint family, used for the temporary relief of minor aches and pains of muscles and joints associated with arthritis, simple backache, strains, sprains, and bruises.

Arnica is a great muscle relief ingredient

Arnica Montana

A botanical extract used for centuries in traditional topical applications. It targets the skin’s surface layers to provide a soothing sensation upon application.

Pyridoxine (Vitamin B6)

An essential nutrient incorporated into the formula to support skin health and complement the cream’s absorption process.

MSM / DMSO2 Methylsulfonylmethane

An organic sulfur compound frequently used in wellness formulations to support the targeted area’s overall condition.

Boswellia Serrata

A plant-derived resin known for its calming properties, working synergistically with the other ingredients for a comprehensive topical experience.

Have Questions? We Have Answers.

Everything you need to know about common questions about our products and services.

  • Apply PENETREX® liberally to the affected area(s) and continue to massage in thoroughly for a minute or two until you can see that it has been absorbed through the skin. The appropriate amount of PENETREX® to use on each occasion should be enough so that the product massages in smoothly & comfortably over the entire area.

    Repeat this 3 to 4 times per day over an initial period of at least 7 to 10 days and thereafter on an as needed basis.

    As symptoms improve, reduce the frequency of applications accordingly to maintain relief and as a preventative measure. Many users have reported that over time PENETREX® provides them with more "efficient" results...requiring fewer applications while achieving quicker and more predictable results.

  • We have customers who call or e-mail us the next day after they start using PENETREX® and they express disbelief at how quickly it provided them with relief.

    At the same time, we also have customers who report back to us that they had begun to lose faith having used the product for a couple of weeks before they finally turned the corner.

  • We utilize Amazon Prime's shipping, so your item should be shipped within the next business day and arrive within 2-8 business days depending on your area.

  • With over 2 Million+ jars of PENETREX® having been distributed since it was introduced, there have been no reports of recurring incidents which would indicate a common occurrence of any negative reaction to the product.

    This is not surprising since all of the ingredients (see below) in PENETREX® are extremely well known and have been widely accepted by medical practitioners.

  • Most customers find that using PENETREX® on its own as directed provides the benefits and relief they desire.

    Nevertheless, PENETREX® is currently being incorporated into overall therapy programs by end users as well as medical professionals worldwide who have found it to be an excellent compliment to other approaches including oral medications & prescriptions, orthopedic products, physical therapy and ultrasound.

    PENETREX® is a product that allows each individual to develop their own regimen that works best for them...on its own or as an invaluable member of a multi-faceted approach.

  • Absolutely Not. PENETREX® is lightly infused with a natural Chamomile Oil extract resulting in a pleasant yet hardly noticeable fragrance that vanishes completely after a minute or two.

    PENETREX® is Non-Greasy, Non-Staining, Paraben-Free, Made in the USA & NEVER Tested on Animals
