Bolt Gel(Mucopolysaccharide Polysulphate 0.2% and Salicylic Acid 2%) Therapeutic Group: Analgesic, Anti Inflammatory --> --> Presentation Bolt Gel: Each gram gel contains Mucopolysaccharide Polysulphate INN 2 mg and Salicylic Acid BP 20 mg. Description Mucopolysaccharide Polysulphate is a non-steroidal drug recognised as having:• Anti-inflammatory activity: through a weak inhibitory effect of PGE2 synthesis and an indirect effect on LTB4 production based on in vitro studies.• Anti-coagulant activity: as a heparinoid• Thrombolytic activity: through potentiation of urokinase activity• Anti-exudatory activity: through inhibition of hyaluronidase Salicylic Acid, a non-steroidal anti inflammatory drug, is employed in the formulation for its keratolytic activity; and also has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties.Bolt is different because the two active ingredients work together. MPS is an effective anti-inflammatory and Salicylic Acid is an absorption enhancer. So Bolt can actually work beneath the surface. Salicylic Acid gently softens the skin to allow MPS to be absorbed where the inflamed and painful tissues are and give relief from pain. Indications A mild to moderate anti-inflammatory and analgesic topical preparation for the symptomatic relief of muscular pain and stiffness, sprains and strains and pain due to rheumatic and non-serious arthritic conditions.
