The active compound in chili peppers used topically and in patch form to relieve pain associated with conditions including neuropathy, arthritis, and post-herpetic neuralgia. It works by initially stimulating and then desensitizing pain-sensing nerve fibers through depletion of substance P and transient TRPV1 receptor overstimulation. Initial burning or stinging at the application site is common.
