The low concentration of capsaicin can only be used for the food industry as additives production pepper fine, capsaicin and other products. The main ingredients of chili pepper extract alkaloids alkali, but also contains a small amount of the dihydro-capsaicin, drop dihydro capsaicin capsaicin, high-dihydro capsaicin, these derivatives with the similar effect with capsaicin.

Major medical role of capsaicin, analgesia: a high purity of capsaicin has a significant effect on postherpetic neuralgia, diabetic neuropathic pain, cancer neuralgia, it is an ideal analgesic drugs, its superiority of analgesia aspect is promising replace morphine. Drug treatment: the scientists found that the drug rehabilitation injection made high purity capsaicin, a broad spectrum of drug treatment of new drugs, has a powerful role in almost all drug addiction, the injection made with capsaicin have large analgesic effect on large area trauma, advanced cancer.
