Q. You wrote recently about Voltaren Gel for sore joints and said it is a prescription product. I bought a tube over the counter when I was in New Zealand a few years ago.
It works very well. I recently used it on a knee I hurt trying to get into a window seat in an airplane. It helped a lot.
A. Countries have different regulations regarding which drugs require prescriptions and which are available over the counter (OTC). Topical diclofenac (Voltaren) requires a prescription in the U.S., but not in New Zealand. This gel is used to ease the pain in joints, tendons, muscles and ligaments due to arthritis, bursitis, sprains and strains.

After reading the enclosed info I am afraid to use it! I understood that Voltaren was safe o use.
This is also available in Canada OTC.
