I've just got my prescription for diltiazem, after rectogesic was giving me headaches. I've have just applied it for the first time & instantly had a burning sensation where I applied it. Not very nice, but did pass after a few minutes.

Anyone else experience this using It? Looking at the possible side effects burning is not listed.

Many thanks.

The skin might not like it initially but you might get adapted to it in a few days. However if you develop redness indicative of a rash then contact your doctor since many people on here have gotten a rash after using it for some weeks.

Thanks. It's not as bad now. after a few applications. No headaches like with the rectogesic, which is a bonus.
