COFENAC GEL works by blocking the effect of chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Thereby, COFENAC GEL helps in providing relief from pain.
COFENAC GEL is used to reduce and relieve pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis. It is a joint disease in which the two ends of the joints come together due to the breakdown of a protective covering called cartilage.
Avoid concomitant use of COFENAC GEL with other topical products such as cosmetics, sunscreens, lotions, moisturisers, insect repellent creams, and other gels.
Do not apply external heat or cover the treated skin with dressings after applying COFENAC GEL. Covering the skin or applying heat might increase the amount of drugs absorbed into the skin leading to unpleasant side effects.
Do not apply COFENAC GEL on wounds, skin injuries, irritated skin, skin abrasions, rashes, and infections. Apply COFENAC GEL on healthy skin only.
Avoid using COFENAC GEL for longer durations unless prescribed by the doctor. The duration depends upon the response to the treatment. If your condition does not improve despite using COFENAC GEL for 7 days, consult a doctor.

About COFENAC GEL
COFENAC GEL is used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with musculoskeletal disorders, strain, sprain, arthritis, contusions (bruise), post-traumatic pain, and low back pain. Musculoskeletal pain could occur due to arthritis, osteoporosis, fractures, dislocations, problems with the bone structure or injury to the bones, joints, tendons, muscles, and ligaments.
COFENAC GEL contains Diclofenac diethylamine which works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make another chemical prostaglandin. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, lesser prostaglandins are produced; this helps in reducing mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site.
In some cases, you may experience common side-effects such as application site reactions like itching, irritation, redness, and burning sensation. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen
COFENAC GEL is for external use only. Notify your doctor if you have had any recent heart surgery. Consult a doctor before using COFENAC GEL if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. COFENAC GEL is not recommended for children below 14 years. Avoid using COFENAC GEL if you are during the perioperative period in the setting of coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
