FAQ: How does Voltaren Emugel penetrate the skin to relieve deep pain?

The emugel formulation combines an oil emulsion with a gel base, creating a unique vehicle that dramatically improves diclofenac penetration through the skin compared to standard cream or gel formulations. The diclofenac concentrates in the underlying tissue at the site of inflammation, reaching therapeutic concentrations in muscles, tendons and joint capsules while blood levels remain very low - providing effective local relief with minimal systemic effects.

FAQ: Is Voltaren Emugel suitable for arthritis joint pain?

Yes - Voltaren Emugel is widely used for osteoarthritis of superficial joints (knees, fingers, ankles, wrists). For deep joints like hips where penetration is more challenging, systemic treatment may be more appropriate. Regular application 3-4 times daily to the affected joint provides cumulative anti-inflammatory benefit. Consult our pharmacist about appropriate use for your specific joint condition.
