The new label messaging is part the company's year-long awareness and fundraising initiative with the Arthritis Foundation.
"We are proud to be a Proceeds Sponsor of the Arthritis Foundation and encourage our customers to join us in supporting the organization," said Bob Miller, vice president of sales and marketing for DRJ Group. "Our company mission is to help chronic pain sufferers manage their pain so they can lead richer, more active lives. We believe that working in cooperation with the Arthritis Foundation will help this become a reality."
As part of the initiative, DRJ Group earlier released a video in cooperation with the Arthritis Foundation - Stop Pain. Start Dancing - which stars motivational speaker and dancer, Judson Laipply. The video was designed to help spread the message that staying active has long-term health benefits, including managing the effects of arthritis. The video can be viewed at www.stopain.com and on various YouTube channels.
Stopain products include the #1 selling spray and the #1 selling roll-on in the topical analgesics category. The active ingredient in Stopain is menthol, recognized by the Food and Drug Administration as an analgesic that provides temporary relief from minor pains and stiffness of arthritis, muscle aches, strains and simple backaches.
Stopain can be purchased nationally in over 25,000 independent pharmacies and national chain drug stores, including Walgreens, Walmart, CVS and Rite-Aid Pharmacies, at various retailers' online sites, and on the Stopain Web site.
