What is Voltaren Gel?
Voltaren Gel, also known as Flector Patch, Solaraze and Voltaren Topical, is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is used particularly to treat arthritis and osteoarthritis. It was the first prescription based topical treatment that was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in the United States. It is non-steroidal and reduces the inflammation in joints and can be applied to hands, feet, ankles, knees, tendons, ligaments and other areas of the body amenable to the application of a topical based treatment.
