Jonac Gel

Jonac Gel is a topical pain-relief medicine used to reduce pain, swelling, and stiffness in muscles and joints. It is commonly prescribed for conditions such as sprains, strains, back pain, sports injuries, and arthritis. The gel works by reducing the production of pain- and inflammation-causing substances at the site of application, providing targeted relief.

Jonac Gel should be applied directly to the affected area as advised by your doctor. For best results, use it regularly for the recommended duration. Along with application, resting the affected area, avoiding strain, and following any suggested exercises or physiotherapy can help speed up recovery.

• Reduction of swelling and inflammation

Benefits of Jonac Gel

In Pain Relief

Jonac Gel provides effective local relief from pain and inflammation when applied to the affected area. It helps reduce muscle and joint pain, swelling, and stiffness associated with injuries and arthritis. Since it acts locally with minimal absorption into the bloodstream, it carries a lower risk of systemic side effects compared to oral painkillers.

Side Effects of Jonac Gel

Most side effects are mild and usually resolve on their own as the skin adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or cause discomfort.

Common side effects include:

• Burning sensation at the application site

• Redness

• Itching

• Skin irritation

How to Use Jonac Gel

• For external use only

• Use the gel in the dose and duration prescribed by your doctor

• Clean and dry the affected area before application

• Apply a thin layer of gel and gently massage

• Wash your hands after applying, unless the hands are the treated area

• Do not apply more than the recommended amount

How Jonac Gel Works

Jonac Gel contains diclofenac, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by blocking the release of chemical messengers responsible for pain and inflammation, thereby reducing redness, swelling, and discomfort at the application site.
