With the arrival of summer, the number of people engaging in outdoor activities such as hiking and exercising is increasing, leading to a rise in cases of joint and muscle injuries. If you injure your joints or muscles during outdoor activities, it is helpful for recovery to take sufficient rest, relieve pain through massage, and use treatments containing anti-inflammatory and analgesic ingredients.

Chong Kun Dang’s ‘Kepem’ is a plaster product containing ketoprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic ingredient, effective for treating muscle pain and arthritis. The drug penetrates the skin quickly and has a high permeability, providing fast and strong anti-inflammatory and pain relief effects when applied to the affected area.

Kepem has a long-lasting effect of 24 hours, so one patch a day is sufficient to achieve the desired effect. It features excellent elasticity and adhesion, making it suitable for use on curved areas like knees and shoulders or joints with frequent movement without hindering activity or easily falling off. Additionally, the adhesive side uses a plastic release liner to prevent the drug from soaking into the liner. The ‘S-shaped’ double cut allows the product to be applied from the center, eliminating the inconvenience of the edges curling up during application. Furthermore, the zipper bag packaging improves user convenience.

A representative from Chong Kun Dang stated, "Kepem has excellent anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects and significantly improves user convenience. It will be a useful household medicine during summer when injuries frequently occur during outdoor activities."
