What is Voltaren Emulgel?
The Voltaren Emulgel product, not just available over the counter, contains a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) called diclofenac. Diclofenac works to inhibit prostaglandins, substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation.[76]By reducing their effects, diclofenac helps to relieve pain and reduce inflammation.[77]
Voltaren Emulgel
Voltaren Emulgel is available as a Gel. Here we explain how it works.
Application of Voltaren Emulgel to the skin
Voltaren Emulgel is topical treatment, which means that you apply it to the skin over the affected area. It works by pooling diclofenac on the surface of the skin, the medicine then penetrates the underlying tissues, targeting the inflamed tissues (e.g. around the joint to relieve pain, reduce inflammation and speed recovery)[29] to relieve pain, decrease swelling and support the recovery process.[77]
