What Is Capsaicin Composed Of?

Hi -- I m trying to find a capsaisin topical cream that does not contain any of my allergens. I found an article about capsaisin, but it does not list the inactive ingredients, so I don t know whether this will be safe for me. Do you know of a site that lists ALL ingredients?
