ichbinsaege Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 There is a family that has a table in the plaza in Chapala that sells it. They have the pomada and the aceite (oil). That stuff works really great on aches and pains. It's usually around $25pesos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ichbinsaege Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 Works better than Flanax for aches and pains? Flanax is same as Aleve, correct? For me, it definitely works better, mainly because I am very allergic to Naproxen Sodium. I also can't take NSAIDS for pain as they rip up my stomach. I have fibromyalgia and since I don't have a lot of options for pain management, the aceite de peyote works great for me. In fact, recently I have had a bad bout of flare-ups from the fibro and while usually a paracetamol will work, it wasn't working. Rubbing the peyote onto the sore spots was the only thing that relieved the pain, for me. I would liken it to using something like Flexall 454 or BenGay.

Sarita Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 I've been buying this stuff for years. Originally found it at Farmacia Guadalajara in Ajijic, when I went for more later was told they don't carry it, as it is a 'controlled substance' (yeah, sure!). Have always been able to find it in the Ajijic tianguis, about halfway down from the carretera on the left, a lady has two tables covered in jars of various lotions and potions. Pomada de Peyote is 12p and well worth it. Have given it to friends with chronic muscle & back pain who swear by it. It stinks something fierce but just don't use it on your face and that shouldn't be a problem. And contrary to popular belief, smearing it on aching bod will not get you a contact high!

simpsca Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 They have peyote cream at the alternative pharmacy store across from Superlake. It's the same store that used to be in Plaza Montana where the eye doctor is located now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
