01

Benefits

  • Topical diclofenac penetrates to the underlying tissue and reduces local inflammation with far lower systemic exposure than an oral NSAID.
  • Methyl salicylate and menthol give an immediate counter-irritant effect that provides rapid perceived relief.
  • Avoids the gastric, renal and cardiovascular risks that limit oral NSAIDs, particularly in the elderly.
  • The gel base is less greasy than an ointment and absorbs quickly.
  • Useful alongside oral treatment, or alone where oral NSAIDs are contraindicated.

Side effects

Not everyone gets these. Most are mild and settle as the course finishes.

Common
  • Burning, warmth or tingling at the application site
  • Local redness
  • Dryness or itching of the treated skin
  • Strong aroma
Less common
  • Contact dermatitis with persistent redness and itching
  • Increased sensitivity to sunlight in the treated area
  • Rash spreading beyond the application site
  • Peeling of the treated skin
Stop and get medical help if any of these occur
  • Severe burning, blistering or ulceration of the treated skin
  • Wheeze or breathlessness after application, particularly in aspirin-sensitive asthma
  • Swelling of the face, lips or tongue, or difficulty breathing
  • Widespread rash with blistering or peeling skin

03

Precautions

  • For external use only. Do not apply to broken skin, open wounds, burns, eczematous skin or mucous membranes.
  • Contraindicated in NSAID or aspirin hypersensitivity, including aspirin-sensitive asthma — topical NSAIDs and salicylates can still provoke bronchospasm.
  • Do not use with a heating pad or under an occlusive dressing; this can cause serious burns and increases absorption.
  • Avoid in the third trimester of pregnancy; use earlier in pregnancy or while breastfeeding only on medical advice.
  • Do not use on large areas or for prolonged periods without advice — absorbed diclofenac matters in renal impairment or alongside oral NSAIDs.
  • Wash hands after application and avoid contact with the eyes.
  • Avoid sun exposure of the treated area.
  • Persistent pain, marked swelling, deformity or pain after significant injury needs assessment.
