Carbomer * - 1.1-1.7 g
Cetostearomacrogol - 2 g
Cocoyl caprylocaprate - 2.5 g
Diethylamine * - 0.89-1.37 g
Isopropanol - 17.5 g
Liquid paraffin - 2.5 g srldgp 0.1 g
Propylene glycol - 5 g
Butylhydroxytoluene - 0.02 g
Purified water * - 64.22-65.32 g.
* using various production equipment and different batch sizes (1000 kg and 2500 kg), the number of carbomers, diethyleneamine and purified water can be slightly adjusted within numbers indicated.
Dosage and administration
The drug is used externally.
For adults and children over 12 years of age, the drug is applied to the skin 2 times / day (every 12 hours: preferably in the morning and evening), rubbing slightly into the skin.
The required amount of the drug depends on the size of the painful area. A single dose of the drug - 2-4 g (which is comparable in volume to the size of cherries or walnuts, respectively) - enough to treat an area of 400-800 cm2.
If the hands are not a localized area of pain, then after applying the drug, they must be washed.
The duration of treatment depends on the indications and the observed effect. The gel should not be used for more than 14 days with post-traumatic inflammation and rheumatic diseases of the soft tissues without the recommendation of a doctor. If after 7 days of use the therapeutic effect is not observed or the condition worsens, the patient should consult a doctor.
To remove the protective membrane, use a screw cap as a key (recess with protrusions on the outside of the cap). Align the recess on the outside of the cap with the curly protective membrane of the tube and rotate. The membrane should separate from the tube.
Tubes can have either a regular cap (round shape) or an innovative cap (triangular shape), which is especially suitable for use with limited mobility of the joints of the hands due to osteoarthritis or other joint diseases or injuries.
Side effects
Determination of frequency of adverse reactions: very common ( 1/10), often ( 1/100, <1/10), infrequent ( 1/1000, <1/100), rare ( 1 / 10,000, <1/1000), very rare (<1 / 10,000), including individual messages.
Infectious and parasitic diseases: very rare: pustular rash.
From the immune system: very rarely - hypersensitivity reactions (including urticaria), angioedema.
From the respiratory system: very rarely - asthma.
From the skin and subcutaneous tissues: often - dermatitis (including contact dermatitis), rash, erythema, eczema, itching rarely - bullous dermatitis very rarely - photosensitization reactions.
If any of the above side effects are exacerbated, or the patient has noticed any other adverse reactions, you should tell your doctor.
Drug Interaction
Voltaren® Emulgel® may enhance the effects of photosensitization agents.
