Olfen 1% Gel 20g

Olfen 1% Gel is a topical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) preparation, with diclofenac sodium as its active ingredient, applied directly to the skin over painful or inflamed areas. As it is applied directly to the affected area, systemic absorption is generally lower than with oral NSAIDs, which may reduce the risk of gastrointestinal side effects. Some people may still notice mild skin irritation, redness, or itching where it is applied. If you're using this gel for the first time, it's helpful to know that a light massage after application helps it absorb evenly, and washing your hands afterward protects other parts of your body, especially your eyes, from accidental contact. It's also worth knowing that this gel is meant for use on intact skin only, not on open wounds or broken skin.

Apply a thin layer to the affected area three to four times daily, avoiding use under airtight or occlusive dressings unless specifically advised by your doctor.

• Skin redness or itching at the application site
• Burning or stinging sensation
• Dryness or peeling of the skin
• Mild swelling of the treated area
• Skin rash
• Increased sensitivity to sunlight
• Rarely, asthma-like breathing difficulty in sensitive individuals
• Rarely, allergic skin reactions such as hives

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place, protected from light and moisture, and keep the tube tightly closed after each use. Keep out of reach and sight of children.

• Use only on intact skin, never on open wounds or broken skin
• Avoid airtight bandages over the treated area unless advised
• Wash hands after application to prevent spreading to eyes or mouth
• Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
• Don't combine with other topical or oral NSAIDs without medical advice
• Discontinue and seek advice if irritation persists or worsens

Apply Olfen 1% Gel to clean, intact skin over the affected area, massaging it in lightly three to four times daily. Wash your hands thoroughly before and after application, and avoid contact with eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes.

Olfen 1% Gel typically remains stable for around 24 to 36 months when unopened. Always check the expiry date printed on the tube before use.

Diclofenac sodium 1% (10mg per gram).

Should not be used by individuals with a known allergy to diclofenac, aspirin, or other NSAIDs, or a history of asthma or allergic reactions triggered by these medicines. Avoid applying to broken, infected, or eczema-affected skin, and consult your doctor before use during pregnancy, particularly in the later stages.

Systemic absorption of topical diclofenac is generally low, but using it together with oral NSAIDs, aspirin, or other diclofenac-containing products may increase the risk of NSAID-related side effects. Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking anticoagulants or other medicines that may increase bleeding risk. There are no significant food interactions associated with topical use of this gel.
