Handok, the maker of Korea’s No. 1 patch-type muscle and arthritic pain treatment known as Ketotop® (ketoprofen), launched a new product named Ketotop Hot® on September 25, 2019.

The new product retains ketoprofen, proven effective in reducing inflammation and pain, and also includes vanillyl butyl ether (VBE), a substance found in sports massage creams to reduce muscle fatigue. The product generates heat and doesn’t have the typical patch odor. The effective ingredients penetrate into targeted spots on the skin to deliver anti-inflammatory and pain-reducing effects directly. The original combination of ingredients and unique manufacturing process maximize penetrability as well as patch flexibility so that it stays securely on the user’s skin.
