'Deep Freeze' producers themselves say you should check with your own doctor or pharmacist whether you can use this product in combination with any other medication you are prescribed. Everything you put on your skin is absorbed and still needs to be processed by the liver.

'Deep Heat' is a no no because it contains ibuprofen but Deep Freeze claims to be drug free because its main component is menthol I believe.

Why are you using it? Is the reason for using it something that your medical team can help with rather than seeking an over the counter option/off the shelf option.
