Difflam Gel 3% 75g

Difflam 3% Gel provides temporary relief of pain and inflammation that may occur in acute soft tissue injuries such as sprains, strains, sports injuries (eg. tennis elbow), tendonitis and bursitis.

Difflam Gel contains the active ingredient benzydamine. Benzydamine belongs to a family of medicines known as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). They work to reduce pain and inflammation in the body by reducing the production of hormone-like substances that promote the inflammatory response.

Benzydamine does not treat the underlying cause of the inflammation, however, and should not be used for extended periods of time without medical advice. Benzydamine also possesses local anaesthetic activity.

Dose:

Gently massage Difflam 3% Gel into the affected area 3-6 times daily as required or as directed by the doctor.

Warning:

•Difflam Gel should not be used for a period of more than 14 days of uninterrupted treatment without medical consultation
•Difflam Gel is not suitable for treating bruises
•Never apply Difflam Gel to an open wound or on skin that has a rash or infection
•Avoid contact with eyes and mucosal surfaces (such as the mouth, vagina and inside the nose) to prevent irritation
•Difflam Gel should be used only under medical advice in patients who are pregnant (ADEC category B2) or breast feeding
