Looks like it is a capsaicin based cream? Not sure how well a topical medication would work.

I haven't got it yet so I dont know, but I think it is a cream to put inside the nostril on the affected CH side.

My neuro is new to me, but he are a researcher on CH, and very vell informed.

I will post a message when I have tried it.
