DMSO therapy offers various potential benefits.

Firstly, it can reduce inflammation and pain by blocking the nervous system and decreasing swelling, providing rapid relief for conditions like arthritis and connective tissue injuries.

Secondly, it improves blood supply and oxygenation to the brain, making it valuable for treating cerebral edema and intracranial hypertension, particularly in head injuries and stroke cases.

Thirdly, DMSO enhances the diffusion of other drugs and medicinal compounds, aiding in overcoming antibiotic resistance and facilitating chemotherapy drug delivery to tumors.

Moreover, it acts as a free radical scavenger, aiding detoxification by removing toxins from cells. DMSO may also help treat amyloidosis by mobilizing amyloid deposits for excretion and shows promise in addressing stomach ulcers, and tendon injuries.

In terms of cancer, DMSO binds to chemotherapy drugs, targeting the cancer cells and dragging the chemotherapy into the cells. This allows the chemotherapy to kill its target: the cancer cells.
