How Diclo-Gsenz Gel works

Topical diclofenac (an NSAID) reduces pain and swelling by inhibiting cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes and lowering prostaglandin production at the site of application. This decreases local inflammation and provides analgesic effect with minimal systemic exposure compared to oral NSAIDs.

How to take Diclo-Gsenz Gel

For external use only. Apply a thin layer to the affected area and gently massage until absorbed, typically 3–4 times daily or as directed by a doctor. Wash hands after application; avoid eyes, mouth, genitals, and broken/irritated skin; do not apply under occlusive dressing unless advised.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take the missed dose of Diclo-Gsenz as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed one and carry on with the usual schedule. Do not take two doses together to make up for a missed dose.

If you take too much

Taking more Diclo-Gsenz than prescribed can be harmful. If you suspect an overdose, contact a doctor or go to the nearest emergency department at once, and carry the pack or strip with you. In India the emergency number is 112.
