Generic Voveran Gel

Common use
Voveran Gel helps reduce pain, inflammation, and stiffness associated with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, back pain, sprains, and strains. It works by blocking the production of natural substances that cause inflammation in the body.

Dosage and direction
A small amount of gel is applied to the affected area two to four times daily and gently rubbed into the skin until fully absorbed. Hands should be washed after application unless the hands are the treated area. The gel should not be applied to open wounds or damaged skin.

Precautions
Contact with eyes, mucous membranes, or broken skin should be avoided. The treated area should not be covered with occlusive dressings unless advised by a doctor. Prolonged or excessive use may increase the risk of side effects. Medical advice is recommended for people with asthma, stomach ulcers, or kidney problems.

Contraindications
Voveran Gel is not suitable for individuals allergic to diclofenac or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. It should not be used by people who have had allergic reactions such as asthma or skin rash after NSAID use.

Possible side effect
Mild skin irritation, redness, itching, or rash may appear at the site of application. Rarely, allergic reactions such as swelling or breathing difficulties may occur. If severe irritation or allergy develops, treatment should be stopped and medical help sought.

Drug interaction
Although systemic absorption is low, caution is advised when using other diclofenac-containing products or oral NSAIDs to prevent additive effects.

Missed dose
If a dose is missed, it can be applied as soon as remembered. If it is almost time for the next application, the missed dose should be skipped. Extra gel should not be applied to make up for a missed dose.

Overdose
An overdose from topical use is unlikely but may cause skin irritation or systemic effects if large amounts are absorbed. If the gel is accidentally swallowed, medical attention should be sought immediately.

Storage
The gel should be stored at room temperature below 30°C (86°F), away from direct sunlight and moisture, and kept out of reach of children.
