Give Patients the Relief They’ve Been Searching For

For patients suffering from leg cramps, restless legs syndrome (RLS), and arthritis or other joint issues, finding relief that’s both safe and effective can be challenging.1-3

For Muscle Cramps
and Spasms

NEW! For Joint Discomfort
and Inflammation

While prescription medications are beneficial in many cases, they can come with side effects, risks, and limitations—particularly regarding opioids and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in the senior population:

  • Due to the increased risk of opioid-related falls and the rise in opioid misuse among the elderly, the CDC now urges clinicians to consider non-opioid options to manage chronic pain.4,5
  • In recent years, the FDA strengthened its warning on the increased risk of heart attack or stroke with prolonged use of non-aspirin NSAIDs.6 Plus, NSAIDs are contraindicated in patients with chronic kidney disease7—which affects nearly 40% of adults 60 and older8—and in those taking anticoagulants.9

Clinical Evidence

In clinical trials, Theraworx Relief for Muscle Cramps and Spasms demonstrated clinically significant results in studies involving RLS and nocturnal muscle cramps:

  • In an Omega Clinical Research study including 35 patients diagnosed with moderate-to-very severe RLS, 60% of participants using Theraworx Relief for Muscle Cramps and Spasms experienced a 50% or greater reduction in severity of symptoms as documented using the IRLS assessment tool.10
  • In a study including 49 patients diagnosed with chronic nocturnal muscle cramps and spasms, 60% of participants using Theraworx Relief for Muscle Cramps and Spasms experienced significant reduction in the incidence and severity of nocturnal muscle cramps, improvements in self-reported quality of life and sleep quality, and a reduction in depressive incidents.11
A Companion Product

Theraworx Relief for Muscle Cramps and Spasms has also been shown to work well as a companion product to certain prescription drugs. According to the latest NPR-Truven Health Analytics Health Poll, nearly 1/3 of people have stopped taking their prescription medications without telling their doctors. Of them, 29% said they’ve stopped due to side effects.12

Muscle cramps happen to be a reported side effect of hundreds of prescription medications, from intravenous iron sucrose and conjugated estrogens to statins and diuretics.1,13 Additionally, certain medications can cause or exacerbate RLS symptoms.14

A Convenient Option

What’s more, our safe and gentle formulation is not sticky or greasy, and it’s a convenient option for many patients. While some products may require up to 12 tablets a day to simply relieve symptoms,15 Theraworx Relief for Muscle Cramps and Spasms can prevent muscle cramps and spasms with just a few simple applications a day.
