Voltaren Emulgel Back & Muscle Pain is formulated for rubbing into the skin to relieve acute pain affecting the joints and muscles. The active substance, diclofenac diethylamine, belongs to the group of medicines called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) that work by blocking the production of particular substances, called prostaglandins, which are involved in the development of pain and inflammation.
Indications:
For the relief of pain associated with recent (acute), localized muscle or joint injuries such as sprains, strains, or sports injuries (e.g. sprain of the ankle, strain of the shoulder or back muscles). Rest may also be helpful to assist in the relief of associated discomfort.
Directions for Use:
For adults and adolescents 16 years and older (regular strength): Apply gel 3 to 4 times a day on the affected area.
The amount needed will vary depending upon the size of the painful or swollen area: 2 g to 4 g (1 g equals a strip approximately 2 cm long) gel will be sufficient to cover a 400 to 800 cm2 area.
