the spontaneous firing of damaged peripheral nerves. By calming these firings at the source, Neuragen is clinically

shown to reduce shooting and burning pains quickly and without the side effects of orally taken medications. This is in part due

to the small lipophilic molecules found in Neuragen which rapidly carry the active ingredients through the rough outer layer

of the skin to the site of the pain. Neuragen is available over the counter in most local pharmacies either in

the diabetic section or the analgesic (pain) section. For more information, please visit www.neuragen.com.
