Diclobenz Gel 30 gm

Diclobenz Gel is used to relieve acute musculoskeletal pain and osteoarthritis. It effectively reduces pain, swelling, and joint stiffness, thereby improving your ability to move and flex the joint. Osteoarthritis is a long term musculoskeletal joint disorder that causes damage to the cartilage and surrounding tissues characterized by pain, swelling, stiffness, and loss of function.

Diclobenz Gel contains diclofenac sodium, linseed oil, methyl salicylate, menthol, and cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride. Diclofenac sodium and methyl salicylate work by lowering hormones in the body that cause inflammation and pain. Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride acts on the brain and nervous system to relax the muscles. Linseed oil inhibits inflammatory mediators like leukotrienes, thereby reducing inflammation. Menthol is a soothing and cooling agent which provides a cooling sensation by dilating the blood vessels. Together, Diclobenz Gel helps relieve mild to moderate pain in musculoskeletal and joint conditions.

Diclobenz Gel is only for external use. Use Diclobenz Gel for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience common side effects such as itching, irritation, redness, and burning sensation at the application site. The majority of these side effects do not necessitate medical attention and will subside gradually over time. However, if you are experiencing these side effects regularly, you should consult your doctor.

Please do not use Diclobenz Gel without a doctor's advice if you have a skin reaction or irritation to any medicine. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Do not use Diclobenz Gel in more than prescribed doses or for a longer duration as it may cause adverse effects. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and all the medicines to rule out any side effects. Do not take any other NSAIDs for pain relief along with Diclobenz Gel unless prescribed. Diclobenz Gel is not recommended for children below 14 years as safety and efficacy have not been established.

Diclobenz gel is a popular topical analgesic designed to provide relief to those experiencing musculoskeletal discomfort. By effectively targeting symptoms like rigidity, tension, stiffness, and muscle spasms, it aims to make day-to-day living more comfortable for individuals grappling with these conditions.

It contains cyclobenzaprine, known for its ability to relax skeletal muscles and aid in reducing muscle spasms and stiffness. Another key ingredient is diclofenac, lauded for its anti-inflammatory properties and pain-relief capacity. The gel's composition also contains menthol, which imparts a cooling sensation to the application area, further alleviating discomfort.

Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride is a skeletal muscle relaxant. It acts on the brain and nervous system to relax the muscles. Linseed oil possesses an anti-inflammatory action that inhibits inflammatory mediators like leukotrienes, thereby reducing inflammation.
