DMSO… one of those OLD SCHOOL remedies people used to always keep in the house 👀🔥

Back in the day, people talked about this stuff like a hidden gem for helping the body when things felt backed up, inflamed, stiff, swollen, overworked, or just not flowing right 😭

People have used DMSO for YEARS for:
✔️ Muscle & joint discomfort
✔️ Swelling & inflammation
✔️ Recovery support
✔️ Stiffness & mobility
✔️ Sports recovery
✔️ Circulation support
✔️ Helping the body feel less “clogged up” and stagnant

At Knowles Apothecary we love carrying those hard-to-find old remedies people still come in asking for by name 👏🏽

The craziest part? Once people finally see DMSO on the shelf they almost always say:
“WOW… I haven’t seen this in YEARS!” 😭🔥

Not every store carries it anymore, and people still swear by it to this day. If you know, you KNOW.

Stop by Knowles Apothecary and grab yours while it’s in stock.

“We had a parrot come into Knowles Apothecary to pick up a prescription, and it reminded us how much we love caring for our pet patients too.

We do a lot of compounded pet medications for dogs, cats, birds, and even exotic pets. If your veterinarian hasn’t recommended us yet, feel free to ask about us or give us a call directly.

Why wait days for medications to come from big out-of-state pharmacies when you can often get personalized service, competitive pricing, and local care right here?

We love helping both our human and animal patients, and seeing our exotic visitors come through the door always makes our day.”
