: > MY MOTHER USED "TOPPSATION" (FROM 1997 ONWARD) AND SAID IT HELPED HER. iT WAS DISTRIBUTED THROUGH "UNIVERSAL DISTRIBUTION SERVICES IN SPARKS, NEV. LOOKS LIKE THEY'RE OUT OF BUSINESS. DO YOU KNOW WHERE I CAN GET THIS PRODUCT? IT WAS A TOPICAL ROLL-ON FOR ARTHRITIS PAIN. THANKS Norma

a quick web search turned up an article by a dr. roy levin in the 4/8/98 modesto bee. he says the active ingredient in toppsation is capsaicin which can also be found in a non-prescription product by that name and in zostrix. maybe one of those would take the place of the toppsation.
