For Pain "Three separate people with different pains and causes all experienced terrible burning sensations. We honestly felt like our flesh and muscles were being cooked, roasted, prepared for a cannibalistic feast for unknown guests. I cannot recommend this for anyone, for any reason. There is no remedy to getting it off your skin; water reactivates it. I cannot understand why this is available. 'First, do no harm' should be revisited."

For Osteoarthritis "I have arthritis in my knee, decided to try Capzasin, used a very small amount. It literally set me on 'fire.' I immediately jumped in the tub and drenched myself with cold water, that didn't even stop the burning. It lasted for hours. Thought I was gonna have to go to the ER!!!"

For Pain "I used Capzasin HP cream on my ankle and knee after a hard day's work. This cream has me on fire, and there is no relief. I tried washing it off, and it only made it worse. I have redness, swelling, and feel like my skin is on fire! And there is no relief! I do not recommend anyone to use this cream. It only causes more pain!"
