The side effects seen most often with Tiger Balm Red Ointment are skin irritation, burning or stinging sensation, redness and itching. Most are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. Tell your doctor if one persists or worries you.
Before you start, tell your doctor about any liver, kidney or heart problem, whether you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding, and every other medicine you take, including supplements and ayurvedic preparations. Some of them can change how Tiger Balm Red Ointment works.
Relieves muscle and joint pain, Helps ease sprains and strains, Provides soothing cooling-warming sensation, Can help relieve headache when applied on temples, Helps provide comfort in cold/nasal congestion when used as chest rub
Most side effects of Tiger Balm Red are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:
Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
For external use only. Apply a small amount to the affected area and gently massage 2–3 times daily or as needed. For headache, apply a thin layer to temples/forehead avoiding eyes. For cold/nasal stuffiness, rub on chest/throat. Wash hands after use; do not cover with tight bandages or apply heat.
Counterirritants like camphor and menthol create a cooling/warming sensation that distracts from deeper pain signals. Essential oils provide additional rubefacient and soothing effects, improving local comfort.
Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, nostrils and broken/irritated skin. Do not use on large areas or under occlusive dressings; do not apply with heating pads (risk of burns/irritation). Stop use if severe irritation, blistering or allergy occurs. Keep out of reach of children; ingestion can be harmful—seek medical help immediately if swallowed. Use with caution in young children; consult a doctor before use in children or if pregnant/breastfeeding. Not for use on deep wounds or serious burns.
No significant systemic drug interactions expected with topical use; increased irritation if used with other topical irritants/rubefacients or medicated patches on the same area.
Store at room temperature (below 30°C), tightly closed, away from heat and direct sunlight. Keep away from moisture and do not freeze.
