Overview Adgel Ointment
Joint and muscle pain, along with associated swelling, find relief with ArthaGel Ointment. This topical analgesic effectively manages injuries like sprains, strains, and contusions, offering comfort for conditions such as tendonitis (including tennis elbow) and osteoarthritis. Apply ArthaGel 2 to 4 times daily to affected areas, the frequency depending on symptom severity. Gently massage the ointment into the skin until fully absorbed. Avoid excessive application and refrain from bandaging or plastering the treated site. While generally well-tolerated, potential side effects include skin rash, itching, redness, or burning. A blistering rash may indicate a serious allergic reaction; seek immediate medical attention if this occurs. ArthaGel Ointment is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and its use is discouraged if you are concurrently taking diclofenac or similar medications.
