Diclofenac Diethylamine, Linseed Oil, Methyl Salicylate & Menthol Gel

Description

Diclofenac Diethylamine, Linseed Oil, Methyl Salicylate, and Menthol Gel: Qtgesic® Gel is a combination of the drugs named Diclofenac Diethylamine, Linseed Oil, Methyl Salicylate, and Menthol Gel, which is used for pain relief. Diclofenac, diethylamine, and menthol are both pain relievers that work by stopping the body from producing chemicals that cause pain and inflammation. Inflammation means redness, swelling, and pain. Diclofenac diethylamine is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), while menthol is a natural pain reliever. Linseed oil is a plant-based oil that helps to reduce inflammation and improve blood circulation in the area where it is applied. It also helps diclofenac diethylamine penetrate the skin more easily. Methyl salicylate is a chemical that is found in wintergreen oil. It has a cooling effect on the skin and can also help to relieve pain. Together, these ingredients work to provide relief from pain and inflammation.

Uses of Diclofenac Diethylamine, Linseed Oil, Methyl Salicylate and Menthol Gel

Diclofenac Diethylamine, Linseed Oil, Methyl Salicylate, and Menthol Gel is a topical analgesic gel that works by combining the effects of its four active ingredients:

1. Diclofenac diethylamine is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that blocks the production of prostaglandins, chemicals that cause pain and inflammation.
2. Linseed oil is a plant-based oil containing linoleic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid with anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce inflammation and improve blood circulation in the affected area.
3. Methyl salicylate (wintergreen oil): a counterirritant that produces a cooling sensation on the skin, distracting from pain and providing temporary relief.
4. Menthol is another counterirritant that provides a cooling sensation and can also help relieve pain.

When we apply these ingredients as gel, it reduces inflammation and pain, improves blood circulation, and provides a cooling sensation.
