Description:

Diclotal 1% Gel is a pain-relieving medicine used to treat pain, swelling, and stiffness in muscles and joints caused by sprains, strains, back pain, sports injuries, and arthritis. It works by reducing the production of substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation.

Diclotal 1% Gel should be applied directly to the affected area, or as advised by your doctor. Wash your hands after application unless they are the treated area. Employ it regularly for the recommended duration to help achieve the best result. Rest the affected part, avoid strain, and follow any advised exercises or physiotherapy to help improve recovery.


Ordinary side effects are usually mild and occur at the site of application. These may include redness, itching, burning sensation, or skin irritation. These effects often improve as the skin adjusts to the medicine. Do not apply more than the advised amount, as that will not provide faster relief and may increase the risk of side effects.


Diclotal 1% Gel should not be applied to broken skin, open wounds, infected areas, or near the eyes, mouth, or nose. The treated area should not be covered with tight bandages unless advised by a doctor. People with a known allergy to diclofenac, aspirin, or other pain-relieving medicines should avoid using it. Caution is needed in pregnant or breastfeeding women, and medical advice should be taken before use.

FAQs:

Does Diclotal 1% Gel work for back pain?

Diclotal 1% Gel is a safe and effective option for treating joint pain, especially in cases of arthritis. It can also be used to treat acute neck pain, back pain, tendonitis, and sprains and strains.

Can I use Diclotal 1% Gel for osteoarthritis in the hip?

No, Diclotal 1% Gel is not recommended for hip pain. The hip joint is located deep in the body. It is unlikely for this medication to be absorbed deep enough under the skin to help with joint pain in the hip.

Can I use any other moisturizer or sunscreen after applying Diclotal 1% Gel?

Avoid using other topical products, such as lotions, and sunscreens, on the same area of skin where you apply Diclotal 1% Gel. These products might affect how your skin absorbs this medication.

Can I use a heating pad or put a bandage on the area after applying Diclotal 1% Gel?

No, it is not advisable to use any heating pad or bandage on the area of application of this gel since it might increase the absorption of the medicine, causing unwanted effects.
