Overview Esfenac Gel

ArthriCare Gel provides pain relief and diminishes swelling in muscles and joints. It's effective for various injuries including sprains, strains, and contusions, and is also suitable for conditions like tendonitis (for example, tennis elbow) and osteoarthritis. Apply ArthriCare Gel to the affected area 2 to 4 times daily, depending on severity, rubbing it in gently and evenly. Avoid overapplication and do not bandage or plaster the treated area. While generally safe with minimal side effects, skin rash, itching, redness, or burning may occur. A rash, especially if blistering, could indicate a serious allergic reaction; contact your doctor immediately if this happens. ArthriCare Gel is not advised during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and should not be used concurrently with oral diclofenac or similar medications.
