From the manufacturer
Arthritis Relief with the Natural Ingredient Capsaicin
What is Capsaicin?
Capsaicin is a naturally occurring substance derived from hot peppers. It is a safe and effective analgesic for arthritis pain. It is so effective that Capzasin is highly recommended by Pharmacists for arthritis pain (source: 2007 OTC Pharmacy Times).
What Does Capsaicin Do?
When applied to the affected area, capsaicin penetrates deep to help relieve minor aches and pains of muscles and joints associated with arthritis, simple backache, strains, sprains, and bruises.
When used every day, as directed, the effectiveness of capsaicin continues to build more and more. The amount of time required for pain relief to occur varies with each person. Some arthritis sufferers may obtain relief within the first week of use, while others may experience relief later. Capzasin can be used for all types of arthritis.

I am going to continue to use this but if the burning sensations become too prominent I am not sure that I can stay with it. I will try to post an update after i have had a chance to use this product for a longer period of time.
I suggest that new users purchase the 1.5 OZ size before buying the multi-packs so that you can determine first if you find it effects and/or you can tolerate any side effects.
