Key Benefits

Oxalgin Nano Gel is a combination of three medicines. Here, diclofenac works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain which are responsible for causing pain and signs of inflammation such as redness and swelling. On the other hand, methyl salicylate and menthol work by causing the skin to feel cool and then warm. This action helps in the improvement of blood circulation and thus provides relief from pain.

About Oxalgin Nano Gel

Oxalgin Nano Gel belongs to a class of NSAIDs (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) and is a combination of three medicines which include Diclofenac, Methyl salicylate and Menthol. It is primarily used to relieve joint pain from arthritis. Arthritis is the swelling and tenderness (pain on touching) of one or more joints characterized by joint pain and stiffness, which typically worsen with age.

Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain which are responsible for causing pain and symptoms of inflammation such as redness and swelling. Methyl salicylate and Menthol are topical analgesics (applied directly to relieve pain). They work initially by cooling the skin followed by warming it up. This action helps in improving blood circulation anda provides relief from the pain.

Oxalgin Nano Gel is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Like all medicines, Oxalgin Nano Gel can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them. You might experience side effects such as burning or stinging sensation, irritation, itching, and redness at the site of application. Most of these side effects of Oxalgin Nano Gel do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Do not use this medicine without consulting your doctor. Even though medicines used topically (directly applied) on the skin are not normally affected by any other medicines, you should inform your doctor if you are taking any other medicine. Also, inform your doctor if you had an allergic reaction to diclofenac or any other medicines in the past, ever had signs of any lung, liver, kidney-related diseases/disorders, muscle weakness (myasthenia gravis), sleeping disorder or difficulty in sleeping (sleep apnoea). Please tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding to avoid unnecessary risks.
