Introduction
Rhumacort gel is a topical medication used to relieve pain and reduce inflammation in the skin. It contains a combination of diclofenac, linseed oil, methyl salicylate, and menthol. This medication is used to treat acute muscular pain, sprains, strains, and sports injuries. It is also used to relieve pain from rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.
Directions for Use
Gently massage Rhumacort gel into the skin of the affected area. Allow the medicine to dry for at least 10 minutes before you wear clothes or gloves over the treated area. Wash your hands immediately after using cream, unless your hands are part of the treated area. Do not wrap, bandage, or apply heat to the treated area.
How it works
Diclofenac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), works by reducing pain, swelling, and inflammation by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins.
