Voltaren Arthritis Pain Gel helps you take on the day, from first thing in the morning until you go to bed. Voltaren has a triple effect that relieves arthritis pain, improves mobility and reduces stiffness to provide prescription-strength pain relief over the counter. With diclofenac sodium, this topical nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug is an alternative to pain pills that can be applied on up to two joints in your hands, wrists, elbows, feet, ankles and knees. The arthritis pain reliever contains Voltaren Emulgel, which combines properties of arthritis cream and gel to penetrate below the surface of the skin and attack pain at the source. You should feel significant pain relief within 7 days of continuous use. Voltaren is paraben and dye-free and provides long lasting relief when applied 4 times a day. Use for up to 21 days. In clinical studies, patients with osteoarthritis of the knee showed significant pain improvement (vs. placebo) starting at 1 week, sustained through 12 weeks.
