Tapal D Tube Of 50gm Gel
Description
Tapal D Gel is a topical analgesic and anti-inflammatory Gel formulated with Menthol, Methyl Salicylate, Virgin Linseed Oil, and Diclofenac Sodium. It is used to relieve pain, swelling, stiffness, an
d inflammation associated with various musculoskeletal conditions such as muscle strains, ligament sprains, sports injuries, backache, neck pain, and mild osteoarthritis. Diclofenac Sodium, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicine, works by reducing the production of prostaglandins that cause pain and inflammation. Menthol provides a cooling sensation that helps soothe the affected area and temporarily distract from pain by stimulating sensory nerve endings. Methyl Salicylate acts as a counterirritant and supports local pain relief by increasing blood flow to the applied region. Virgin Linseed Oil contains essential fatty acids that contribute to anti-inflammatory effects and enhance skin penetration of active ingredients. Tapal D Gel works locally at the site of application with minimal systemic absorption when used as directed. It helps improve mobility, reduce discomfort during movement, and support faster recovery from minor injuries. This Gel is intended strictly for external use and should be applied only on intact skin as advised by a healthcare professional.
