Voveran Emulgel

Product Overview

Voveran Emulgel is a topical analgesic containing Diclofenac as its active component. This emulsion-based gel formulation is specifically designed for external application to deliver localized relief from pain and inflammation caused by musculoskeletal disorders. By applying directly to affected areas, it enables targeted drug delivery with faster onset of action compared to oral medications. Clinically prescribed for managing osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, sports injuries, sprains, and muscle strains.

Uses

This topical medication provides effective symptomatic treatment for mild-to-moderate pain and inflammatory conditions affecting muscles, joints, and periarticular tissues. It serves as an excellent alternative for patients seeking non-oral therapy or those requiring localized treatment to avoid systemic side effects commonly associated with oral NSAIDs.

How to Use

For optimal results:
1. Apply a measured amount of gel to clean, dry skin over the affected area
2. Gently massage until completely absorbed
3. Wash hands after application (unless treating hands)
4. Avoid contact with eyes, mucous membranes, or damaged skin
5. Discontinue if skin irritation develops and consult your physician
Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions regarding frequency and duration of use.

How it Works

The therapeutic action of Voveran Emulgel stems from its ability to inhibit cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX-1 and COX-2), thereby reducing prostaglandin synthesis at the application site. Prostaglandins are inflammatory mediators responsible for pain, swelling, and fever. The emulsion-based formulation enhances skin penetration, allowing rapid drug absorption and localized pharmacological effects while minimizing systemic exposure.

Dosage and Administration

Recommended application guidelines:
• Apply 2-4 times daily depending on symptom severity
• Use the smallest effective amount to cover the affected area
• Maximum daily application area should not exceed 400 cm²
• Treatment duration should be as short as medically necessary
Consult your physician if symptoms persist beyond 7 days or worsen during treatment.
