Diclofenac Gel 30g is a topical anti-inflammatory applied directly to the skin over painful joints and muscles, delivering localised pain relief without the gastrointestinal side effects of oral NSAIDs. The gel formulation allows the active ingredient to penetrate the skin and concentrate in the underlying tissue, providing targeted anti-inflammatory action exactly where it is needed.
Topical vs Oral Diclofenac
Oral Diclofenac 100mg SR provides systemic (whole-body) anti-inflammatory effects but carries GI risks with prolonged use. Topical gel delivers the same active ingredient directly to the affected area with minimal systemic absorption, making it suitable for longer-term use on specific joints or muscle groups. Studies show topical diclofenac achieves therapeutic concentrations in underlying tissue while maintaining blood levels 90% lower than equivalent oral doses.
How to Use
- Apply 2-4g of gel (roughly a walnut-sized amount) to the affected area 3-4 times daily
- Massage gently into the skin until absorbed
- Do not apply to broken skin, open wounds, or mucous membranes
- Wash hands after application unless treating the hands themselves
- Allow to dry before covering with clothing
Best For
- Knee, elbow, and shoulder joint pain from heavy lifting
- Lower back muscle soreness and inflammation
- Tendon discomfort (tennis elbow, patellar tendinitis)
- Post-training recovery for specific muscle groups
- Joint discomfort during dry compounds like Winstrol or Stanavar
