   Voltaren Arthritis Pain can be used for the temporary relief of arthritis
   pain in the hands, wrists, elbows, feet, ankles and knees to make daily tasks
   less painful. It was studied in patients with osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis
   (OA) is the most common form of arthritis and mainly affects cartilage. When
   you have OA, your cartilage begins to break down and wear away, resulting in
   joint pain and stiffness. OA occurs more frequently when you get older and
   the pain can gradually worsen over time.
   
   Voltaren works similarly to oral NSAIDs like naproxen by temporarily blocking
   the production of pain-signaling chemicals called prostaglandins. It works by
   penetrating deep through skin to deliver NSAID medicine and relieve arthritis
   pain to help you seize the day.

   such as naproxen.


 * HOW IS OVER-THE-COUNTER VOLTAREN ARTHRITIS PAIN GEL DIFFERENT FROM

      VO: Voltaren – the joy of movement
   
   Voltaren is the first full prescription strength OTC topical NSAID gel for
   arthritis pain. Many other OTC topical products temporarily mask arthritis
   pain by creating a heating or cooling sensation on the skin. Voltaren is
   applied to the painful area and penetrates deep to treat arthritis pain by
   temporarily blocking the production of pain signaling chemicals.


 * WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TOPICAL AND ORAL DICLOFENAC?
   
   Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is often
   used to treat arthritis pain. It comes in both topical and oral forms.
   
   The FDA approval of Voltaren Arthritis Pain is specifically for the topical
   gel form. Voltaren Arthritis Pain does not offer an oral diclofenac form.
   
   Topical NSAIDs, such as Voltaren Arthritis Pain Gel (diclofenac sodium 1%),
   should be considered prior to the use of oral NSAIDs, according to the
   American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Treatment Guidelines. The goal for
   this ACR guideline is for patients to achieve the lowest systemic exposure,
   which refers to the amount of NSAID medicine circulating in the bloodstream.
   
   As a topical gel, a smaller amount of diclofenac from Voltaren Arthritis Pain
   Gel reaches the bloodstream compared with the oral form of diclofenac. In a
   clinical study, the systemic exposure with Voltaren Arthritis Pain Gel was
   6%, or 94% less than the systemic exposure with the oral NSAID diclofenac.
   
   Voltaren Arthritis Pain Gel is applied directly to the joints and penetrates
   through the skin on its way to the site of arthritis pain. Voltaren Arthritis
   Pain Gel also gives you greater flexibility in managing your arthritis pain
   with FDA approval for use up to 21 days, while oral NSAIDs are indicated for
   use up to 10 days without consulting a doctor.
