I received a sample of IB-Relief from the 2009 Sea Otter Classic and I’ve been using this product since then. Here’s some info about IB-Relief.

Price:2oz up to $18
I’ve used IB-Relief on pretty much any muscle or joint aches that I’ve had to see if this stuff works. The cream goes on nice and even, no greasy residue or funny old man smell. It feels like regular skin lotion.
How well does it work?
It works. It will take away the pain for up to 2 hours, then I have to reapply. When I tore my calf muscle, I used the cream to help relieve the pain. It sure did help!
But I gotta tell you, 600mg of Ibuprofen works better and lasts longer than this cream. If anything I’d rather take pills that cost $3.00 for 50 from Wal-Mart rather than spending $18 for 2oz of IB-Relief. With that being said, I wouldn’t recommend it since taking OTC Ibuprofen would be cheaper.
Review Disclaimer
It’s a real shame that the pharmaceutical grade ibuprofen gel (topical ibuprofen), isn’t available here in the US. Europeans have been enjoying it for years, as I do when I go overseas. It works fast, and better than oral ibuprofen. Ask for it at your European pharmacy!
