Description
Powergesic Plus Gel 30g contains diclofenac, methyl salicylate, menthol, and linseed oil. It is used to relieve joint pain associated with arthritis, as well as pain from muscle injuries such as sprains and strains. Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that reduces pain and inflammation. Methyl salicylate and menthol provide a cooling sensation, while linseed oil helps to soothe the skin.
