    MUV ointment has a local irritating, local anesthetic and anti-inflammatory effect. Has a reflex vasodilator effect. The effect of the drug is due to a combination of active ingredients.

    Levomenthol

    The irritating effect of levomenthol helps reduce pain. Local action is accompanied by narrowing of the vessels, sensation of cold, turning into a feeling of slight burning and tingling.

Nonselectively inhibits cyclooxygenase, reducing the synthesis of prostaglandins.Normalizes the increased permeability of capillaries, improves microcirculation processes, reduces edema and infiltration of inflamed tissues. Methyl salicylate, when applied topically, penetrates into the tissues through unchanged skin, while not reaching a concentration in the systemic blood stream at which an analgesic effect is obtained. The action is only local.

    The salicylates are excreted mainly by the kidneys, the rate of excretion depends on the plasma concentration and pH of the urine.

    Eucalyptus leaf oil has an antiseptic and moisturizing effect due to the essential oil content.
