TOPICAL SUBJECTS<br />
While many people take oral “non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs”<br />
(NSAIDs) to treat osteoarthritis and other types of joint pain, prolonged<br />
use of aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, diclofenac, and others can lead to<br />
potentially serious unwanted side effects. With this in mind, many NSAID<br />
users are switching to safer topical NSAIDs. These include the prescription<br />
medication Voltaren Gel, an FDA-approved topical diclofenac gel<br />
(which also comes in patch form, the Flector Patch) for the treatment of<br />
acute pain from strains, sprains, bruises, and knee osteoarthritis. Topical<br />
NSAIDs are most effective for treating painful joints nearer to the skin’s<br />
surface. While topical NSAIDs greatly reduce the systemic side effects<br />
that are more commonly associated with their oral counterparts, they do<br />
not eliminate them completely.<br />
Topical NSAIDs should not be used in combination with oral NSAIDs or<br />
aspirin because of the potential for adverse effects. The gel’s active<br />
ingredient still gets into your bloodstream, so you have to consider the<br />
total amount you’re getting. For more information, please call VILLAGE<br />
PHARMACY at 781-334-3133. We are located in the Colonial Shopping<br />
Center and open Mon.-Fri., 9-8; Sat. 9-5; and Sun. and holidays, 9-1:30.<br />
HINT: Topical salicylates such as Aspercreme® may provide pain relief,<br />
but their analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties are much less potent<br />
than those of topical NSAIDs.<br />
