Medicine Description olfen-gel 10mg
Olfen gel is used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with joints and muscles. It is applied topically to the skin at the site of pain to help reduce swelling, stiffness, and discomfort caused by conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis such as the knee joint, lower back pain, tendonitis, sprains, and muscle strains. The gel works by inhibiting the production of inflammatory chemicals such as prostaglandins, which reduces pain and swelling without the need for oral medication.
Olfen gel is easily absorbed through the skin without causing significant systemic effects, making it a suitable option for people who cannot tolerate oral anti-inflammatories. It is usually used 2 to 3 times daily and applied to the affected area with a gentle massage. Contact with the eyes or open wounds should be avoided.
