How to use Difsun Maxx Gel
This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the gel. Wash your hands after applying, unless hands are the affected area.
How Difsun Maxx Gel works
Difsun Maxx Gel is a combination of five medicines : Diclofenac Diethylamine, Thiocolchicoside, Linseed Oil, Methyl Salicylate, and Menthol. Diclofenac diethylamine and Methyl Salicylate are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) which work by blocking the release of chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Thiocolchicoside is a muscle relaxant. It works on the centers in the brain and spinal cord to relieve muscle stiffness or spasm and to improve pain and movement of muscles. Linseed Oil decreases swelling through its anti-inflammatory properties. Menthol produces a cooling effect on the skin. Menthol dilates the blood vessels causing a sensation of coldness, followed by an analgesic effect. Menthol also acts as a penetration enhancer, increasing the penetration of drugs when applied on the skin, to give a faster onset of action.
Quick tips
- Before applying the gel, make sure your hands and the affected area of the skin are clean and dry. Wash your hands thoroughly after application.
- If you have sensitive skin or a history of allergies, perform a patch test by applying a small amount of the gel to a small area of skin first to check for any adverse reaction.
- After applying the gel, gently massage it into the skin. This can help improve absorption and effectiveness. Always read and follow the instructions provided with the gel carefully.
- Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, open wounds, or mucous membranes.
