Lokpentech Plaster is a product released in a plaster form that can be easily applied without adhesive sheets, based on the existing 'Lokpentech Cataplasma.' Its main ingredient is 56.7 mg of Loxoprofen Sodium Hydrate, and it contains medicinal charcoal as an excipient.

Loxoprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to treat degenerative arthritis, muscle pain, swelling, pain, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory effects after trauma in areas such as the shoulder, knee, elbow, and wrist. It is an oral formulation prescribed in orthopedics and dentistry for surgery and anti-inflammatory analgesic purposes. Jeil Health Science applied transdermal drug delivery system (TDDS) technology to the loxoprofen ingredient to convert it into a topical agent and launched it.

In particular, the medicinal charcoal added to Lokpentech Plaster is activated charcoal extracted for pharmaceutical use. It effectively helps relieve symptoms by adsorbing inflammatory substances, bacteria, viruses, and other agents inside the body.

Seo Eun-pyo, Marketing PM at Jeil Health Science, said, “Lokpentech Plaster provides 24-hour drug efficacy, helping consumers relieve pain,” adding, “It is convenient for use not only for pain caused by outdoor sports activities such as golf, tennis, and hiking but also for elderly people who have difficulty with long hours of work and activity.”

Lokpentech Plaster is available as an over-the-counter drug and can be purchased at pharmacies.
