Voltarol Back and Muscle Pain Relief Gel can help alleviate pain in joints, sprains, strains and bruises and helps speed up recovery. It contains a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) called diclofenac which targets pain at its source and has the benefits of moisturising cream and a cooling gel.

• Voltarol Back and Muscle Pain Relief 1.16 Gel is a versatile topical analgesic that helps alleviate pain when it is applied to the topical area.
• It can be used to relieve pain caused by sprains, strains and bruises, and helping with minor sport injures related to tendons, ligaments, and tennis elbow.
• It also helps bring down inflammation in the muscles, back and neck caused by these injuries.

Unlike other topical analgesics, Voltarol back and muscle pain relief gel contains an active ingredient called diclofenac, a tried and tested formula for pain relief.

Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). NSAIDs are a group of analgesics that work as pain and inflammation-reducing medicines.

The Voltarol Back and Muscle Pain Relief Gel works by blocking the production of a few of the body's chemicals that cause swelling (inflammation), pain and tenderness in the affected area. This gel also has an 'Emugel' technology that makes sure the gel penetrates deeply into the skin to enhance the delivery of diclofenac to the point of pain.

You can apply the Voltarol Back and Muscle Pain Relief Gel to the affected area up to 4 times a day with at least 4 hours of gap between applications of the gel. You can't apply this gel more than 4 times in one 24 hour period. Your doctor might ask you to use the gel fewer times than the average depending on your unique case.

If pain and swelling does not improve within 7 days make sure to talk to your doctor. Do not use the gel for longer than 7 days unless a doctor has recommended longer treatment. The gel is not recommended for use in children under 14 years of age.

Wash your hands and clean the affected area before using the gel. Then take a small pea-sized amount on your finger and gently rub the gel on the skin around the painful or swollen area.

The gel has a pleasant smell and doesn't stain clothing. Wash your hands thoroughly after you're done applying the gel.
