Theraworx Relief for Muscle Cramps and Spasms is a topical, locally acting solution (applied to the skin and works only where you need it to). The grapefruit extract contribution in total to the Theraworx Relief formulation is such that systemic effects (affecting the whole body) would be considered negligible, especially since Theraworx Relief is not intended to be ingested. However, it’s best to check with your doctor before using Theraworx Relief.
A sulfur allergy is typically related to sulfonamide antibiotics, which are oral, systemic (affect your whole body) drugs. Magnesium sulfate is a naturally occurring mineral, and it’s part of our topical solution, so it gets applied to the skin and works only where you need it to—not throughout your body like systemic drugs. While we don’t believe you would have allergy issues, it’s best to check with your doctor before using Theraworx Relief for Muscle Cramps and Spasms.
Theraworx Relief for Muscle Cramps and Spasms contains a very small amount of methylparaben and propylparaben, which are a fraction (approximately 1/200) of what the FDA says is safe for daily use. Methylparaben and propylparaben are used as product preservatives, protecting consumers from things like harmful bacteria and mold. According to the Food and Drug Administration, parabens have not been shown to be harmful as used in cosmetics—and topical solutions like Theraworx Relief—because they contain very small amounts.
