Experience targeted, long-lasting relief with Voltarol 12 Hour Joint Pain Relief Gel. Specially formulated for those managing persistent aches, this high-strength 2.32% diclofenac formula penetrates deep into the tissue to address pain at its source. Whether you are dealing with a sports injury or everyday joint stiffness, Voltarol helps you stay active by reducing inflammation for up to 12 hours with just one application.

Description

Voltarol 12 Hour Gel (often referred to as Voltarol Max Strength) uses unique Emulgel technology. This allows the active ingredient, diclofenac diethylammonium, to pass through the skin and create a 'reservoir' of pain relief in the underlying tissues.

  • Targeted Relief: Unlike oral tablets, the gel concentrates its power exactly where you need it, reducing the risk of systemic side effects.
  • Anti-Inflammatory Action: It doesn't just mask pain; it actively works to reduce the swelling and inflammation that cause discomfort.
  • Non-Greasy Formula: The cooling, cream-like gel is easy to rub in, leaving no sticky residue or strong medicinal odours.
FAQ

How long does it take for Voltarol 12 Hour Gel to work?

You may feel a cooling sensation immediately. For chronic conditions like mild arthritis, it may take up to 7 days of twice-daily use for the full anti-inflammatory effect to build up.

Can I use Voltarol 12 Hour Gel with other painkillers?

You should not use this gel alongside oral diclofenac or other NSAID tablets (like ibuprofen or aspirin) without consulting a healthcare professional, as this can increase the risk of side effects.

Is Voltarol 12 Hour Gel better than the original Emulgel?

Voltarol 12 Hour Gel contains double the concentration of diclofenac compared to the standard 1.16% Emulgel. This allows for twice-daily application rather than four times a day, providing more convenience for all-day relief.

Directions
  • Who it’s for: Adults and adolescents aged 14 years and over.
  • How to apply: Gently squeeze 2g to 4g of gel (roughly the size of a 1p or 2p coin) and rub into the affected area.
  • Frequency: Apply twice daily, ideally in the morning and evening.
  • Duration: Do not use for more than 14 days unless recommended by a doctor. Wash hands thoroughly after use unless they are the area being treated.
