Ammeltz Neck N Shoulder Pain

Ammeltz Neck N Shoulder Pain is a topical roll-on liquid sold under the Ammeltz brand, combining Methyl Salicylate, Menthol, Camphor, and Eucalyptus Oil in a liquid base designed for external application. The roll-on applicator design allows the liquid to be applied directly to the skin without needing to use the fingers, which some users find more convenient and less messy than a cream or ointment format.

The product is classified as an OTC (Over-the-Counter) topical preparation and can be purchased at pharmacies and online pharmacies in Malaysia without a doctor’s prescription. Its combination of salicylate, menthol, and camphor produces the characteristic cooling-then-warming sensation on the skin that is common to this category of topical liniments.

Ammeltz Neck N Shoulder Pain is sold in Malaysia in a 2-piece pack format. As with other topical liniments in this product class, it is intended for external use on intact skin only, and the bottle should be kept tightly closed and stored safely out of reach of children when not in use.

• Roll the applicator directly onto clean, dry skin over the neck and shoulder area.
• Allow the liquid to absorb into the skin; rubbing is not required.
• Wash your hands thoroughly after application, avoiding contact with the eyes, nose, mouth, and other mucous membranes.
• Do not apply to broken, irritated, or recently shaved skin, and do not cover the application site with an airtight bandage or heating pad.

For adults and children above 12 years old, apply Ammeltz Neck N Shoulder Pain to the affected area up to 3 to 4 times a day, or as needed. Avoid applying more than a thin layer and do not reapply to the same area more frequently than recommended, since excessive or prolonged application increases the amount of salicylate absorbed through the skin. Use in children aged 2 to 12 years should only be done under the guidance of a doctor or pharmacist, and the product is not recommended for infants or children under 2 years old.

Use Ammeltz Neck N Shoulder Pain before the expiry date printed on the packaging. Discard the product if its colour, odour, or consistency changes noticeably.

Store Ammeltz Neck N Shoulder Pain at room temperature, below 30°C, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and naked flames, as the product contains flammable volatile oils. Keep the applicator cap tightly closed when not in use, and store it out of the reach and sight of children.

• Common: mild skin irritation, stinging, or a burning sensation at the site of application.
• Common: temporary redness or warmth of the skin.
• Common: a strong, lingering menthol or camphor-like odour on the skin or clothing.
• Serious: allergic contact dermatitis, presenting as persistent rash, blistering, swelling, or intense itching, which requires discontinuing use and seeking medical attention.
• Serious: signs of salicylate absorption such as ringing in the ears, nausea, or dizziness after extensive or prolonged use over large areas of skin, which requires urgent medical care.

• Known hypersensitivity or allergy to Methyl Salicylate, aspirin, other salicylates, or any of the other listed ingredients.
• Application to broken, cut, infected, or recently shaved skin, or to open wounds.
• Use on the eyes, inside the nose or mouth, or on other mucous membranes.
• Use in infants and children under 2 years old.
• Use together with a heating pad, hot water bottle, or tight occlusive bandage over the application site.

• Patients taking oral anticoagulant medicines such as warfarin should use caution, as Methyl Salicylate can be absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream and may increase the anticoagulant effect, raising the risk of bleeding with extensive or prolonged application.
• Avoid using Ammeltz Neck N Shoulder Pain at the same time as other topical or oral products containing salicylates, as this can increase the total amount of salicylate absorbed and raise the risk of salicylate toxicity.
• No clinically significant food interactions have been identified for this topical product, as it is not taken orally.

• Always perform a small patch test on a limited area of skin before first use, and discontinue if irritation develops.
• Wash your hands immediately after rolling on the product to avoid accidentally transferring it to your eyes or face.
• Do not bandage, wrap, or apply a heat source over the area where the product has been applied.
• Keep the applicator cap tightly closed to prevent the liquid from evaporating or leaking.
• Keep the product away from open flames or heat sources, as it contains flammable volatile oils.
• Check the expiry date on the packaging before each use.

Precautions: Ammeltz Neck N Shoulder Pain is intended for external use only. Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, nose, and other mucous membranes, and do not apply to broken or irritated skin. Pregnant or breastfeeding women, and individuals with known sensitivity to salicylates or aspirin, should consult a doctor or pharmacist before use. Discontinue use immediately if a rash, blistering, or severe irritation develops.

When to See a Doctor or Pharmacist: Seek medical advice if skin irritation, redness, or itching persists or worsens after a few days of use, if signs of an allergic reaction appear, or if symptoms of salicylate absorption such as ringing in the ears, nausea, or dizziness occur after application.
