If you are experiencing pain and are unsure if it is arthritis, read our guide here: Do I have Arthritis?

What are the active ingredients in Capsiva?

The homeopathic active ingredients in Capsiva are capsicum annuum, containing capsaicin, and arnica montana.


These ingredients have been used in pain-relief products for centuries. Our trade-secret process allows us to harness the power of these ingredients to help you get back to your life - pain-free!

How is there no heat in Capsiva if it uses capsaicin?

Our proprietary homeopathic formula is a scientific breakthrough that has allowed us to use all of the benefits from capsicum annuum, containing capsaicin, with none of the heat or side effects -allowing for relief from your minor aches and arthritis pain!

What is a homeopathic formula?

Homeopathic medicine refers to the belief that the body can heal itself. Homeopathy uses trace amounts of homeopathic active ingredients to support this process.

How is Capsiva different from other topical gels?

Capsiva uses homeopathic active ingredients, while other topicals use monograph drugs.


Capsiva discovered a proprietary process that allows us to remove all the heat from capsicum annuum containing capsaicin. This makes it safe to use with all pre-existing conditions because there are no known side effects.


It's important to note, studies have shown products applied to the skin can enter the bloodstream within minutes. For this reason, it's important to treat topical pain-reliving products with the same concern you would a medication, as other products can interact with medicines prescribed by your doctor. Capsiva is different because there are no known side effects or drug interactions.

How does applying Capsiva feel?

Unlike other pain relievers, Capsiva is a light, non-greasy formula which temporarily provides minor relief from arthritis, back, joint, and muscle pain. You will not experience a burning or cooling sensation when using Capsiva, nor a harsh odor.

How long does it take for Capsiva to work?

Capsiva has a fast-absorbing formula, but the length of time may vary from person to person. You may use Capsiva until you receive the desired amount of relief.
