DMSO exhibited zero-order degradation kinetics when sufficient ozone was supplied. It is an effective pain killer, blocking nerve conduction fibers that produce pain. 

DMSO is a potent antioxidant, scavenging the highly reactive molecules that contribute to disease and aging, known as free radicals. It  is used as a topical analgesic to block pain signals. 

Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is an organosulfur compound with the formula (CH3)2SO. It can uniquely provide solubility to certain very polar small molecules, such as simple biomolecules with multiple protic functional groups.
