Product introduction

Dolonex Gel is only meant for external use and should be used strictly as advised by your doctor. Apply a thin layer of the medicine on the aeefceted area and massage with clean and dry hands. Avoid getting in contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth. In case of accidental contact, rinse it thoroughly with plenty of clean water.


It is usually safe with little or no side effects. However, it may cause allergic reactions such as rashes, itching, redness, increased sensitivity to light, contact dermatitis, and eczema in some people. They are usually temporary and resolve with time. If they do not get better with time or worsen, you should let your doctor know. Your doctor may be able to suggest ways of preventing or reducing the symptoms.


Before using the medicine, it is important to tell your doctor if you are using or have recently used any other medicines for the same disease or other diseases. To make sure the medicine is safe, pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using the medicine.

Uses of Dolonex Gel

Benefits of Dolonex Gel

Pain relief
Dolonex Gel is used for short-term relief of pain, inflammation, and swelling in conditions that affect joints and muscles. It works by blocking chemical messengers in the brain that tell us we have pain. It can help relieve pain in conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis or even after a dental (tooth-related) surgery.
Take it as it is prescribed to get the most benefit. Do not take more or for longer than needed as that can be dangerous. In general, you should take the lowest dose that works, for the shortest possible time. This will help you to go about your daily activities more easily and have a better, more active, quality of life.

Quick tips

  • Dolonex Gel helps relieve pain and swelling of various joints and muscles.
  • Rub it gently over the affected area, until it is absorbed.
  • Do not apply to broken, diseased, infected or irritated skin, or to open wounds.
  • Do not cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages, as these may increase the risk of side effects.
