How PG Nac Products work
Diclofenac diethylamine + Linseed Oil + Methyl Salicylate + Menthol is a combination of four medicines: Diclofenac diethylamine + Linseed Oil + Methyl Salicylate + Menthol1, Diclofenac diethylamine + Linseed Oil + Methyl Salicylate + Menthol2, Diclofenac diethylamine + Linseed Oil + Methyl Salicylate + Menthol3 and Diclofenac diethylamine + Linseed Oil + Methyl Salicylate + Menthol4. Diclofenac diethylamine + Linseed Oil + Methyl Salicylate + Menthol1 and Diclofenac diethylamine + Linseed Oil + Methyl Salicylate + Menthol4 are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) which work by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Diclofenac diethylamine + Linseed Oil + Methyl Salicylate + Menthol2 is a plant-based oil which further reduces inflammation and improves blood circulation at the site of application.It also increases the penetration of Diclofenac diethylamine + Linseed Oil + Methyl Salicylate + Menthol1 through the skin. Diclofenac diethylamine + Linseed Oil + Methyl Salicylate + Menthol3 produces a cooling effect on the skin.
