Voltarol Paineze Emugel 30g

Voltarol Pain Eze Emulgel 30g is a topical anti-inflammatory gel containing diclofenac diethylammonium 1.16%, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It is used directly on the skin to help relieve pain, swelling, and inflammation in muscles and joints.

It belongs to the Voltarol “Emulgel” range, which is designed to improve absorption of diclofenac through the skin into deeper tissues.

🔹 How it works

• Diclofenac penetrates the skin to reach underlying muscles, tendons, and joints
• It blocks inflammatory chemicals (prostaglandins) that cause pain and swelling
• The Emulgel formulation helps form a reservoir in the skin for sustained release of the active ingredient

Unlike heat rubs or cooling gels, it treats the source of inflammation rather than just surface sensation.

🔹 What it is used for

Voltarol Pain Eze Emulgel is commonly used for:

• Muscle strains and sprains
• Back and neck pain
• Sports injuries (bruises, overuse injuries)
• Tendon inflammation (e.g. tennis elbow)
• Localised joint pain and soft tissue inflammation

🔹 Duration of action

• Typically applied 3–4 times daily (depending on product guidance)
• Provides localised relief of pain and inflammation with continued absorption over time
• Treatment is usually short-term unless advised by a pharmacist or doctor

🔹 Key benefits

• Targets pain directly at the affected area
• Reduces inflammation and swelling
• Non-greasy and easy to apply
• Avoids stomach side effects associated with oral NSAIDs
• Useful for small, localised painful areas

🔹 How to use

• Apply a small amount to the painful area
• Gently rub into skin until absorbed
• Wash hands after use (unless treating hands)
• Do not apply to broken or irritated skin

🔹 Important precautions

• Do not use if allergic to diclofenac or other NSAIDs
• Avoid eyes, mouth, and broken skin
• Do not use for prolonged periods without medical advice
• Do not combine with other diclofenac products unless advised
