What Is Diclofenac?
Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that has been used by US patients and doctors for more than 10 years. When applied topically, diclofenac gel has demonstrated efficacy in treating arthritis,1 including osteoarthritis, the most common type of arthritis.2
It works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, which are the substances that control inflammation in the body.3
Arthritis sufferers are all too familiar with the painful joints that come with inflammation, and how hard it can be to move. Topical diclofenac helps relieve pain and alleviate stiffness by diminishing inflammation
