Diclofenac Topical Gel

Description

Diclofenac gel (brand names include: Voltaren gel / Voltaren emulgel / Voveral emulgel) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) in topical form.

It is the first and only prescription topical NSAID FDA-approved for osteoarthritis joint pain.

Diclofenac gel may be used to treat arthritis pain:

In the arms: hands, wrists and elbows.
In the legs: feet, ankles and knees.


Because of how Diclofenac gel is formulated, only 6% of the active ingredient is absorbed throughout the entire body compared to 100% of the equivalent oral dose. With Diclofenac gel, you can target the pain relief in areas where it is most needed, with lower exposure to the rest of the body.

By applying Diclofenac gel 4 times daily, you help the medication levels remain steady throughout the day, providing relief you can count on. Remember, osteoarthritis is a chronic condition. By rubbing in Diclofenac gel every day as directed, you can look forward to effective osteoarthritis joint pain relief.
