Voligel Max Gel 2% w/w is a high-strength topical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) formulated with Diclofenac Sodium. It is designed to provide enhanced and long-lasting relief from localized pain, inflammation, and swelling associated with musculoskeletal and joint disorders. The higher concentration of diclofenac makes Voligel Max Gel particularly suitable for moderate to severe pain conditions where stronger topical therapy is required, while still avoiding many systemic effects linked to oral NSAIDs.

Mechanism of Action

Diclofenac Sodium exerts its therapeutic effect by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) enzymes, which are responsible for the formation of prostaglandins involved in pain and inflammation. When applied topically, Voligel Max Gel penetrates the skin and accumulates in underlying tissues such as muscles and joints. This localized action reduces inflammation, alleviates pain, and improves mobility at the site of application with minimal systemic absorption.
