Motusol Gel 1.16% w/w Gel; a potent solution infused with the powerful ingredient diclofenac, comes from a family of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Designed meticulously for symptomatic treatment, it excels in alleviating mild to moderate pain stemming from acute strains, sprains, or contusions that follow a blunt trauma.

The standout aspect of Motusol is its ability to target pain right at its source. By reducing swelling and accelerating recovery, it ensures a smooth and rapid return to daily activities. Additionally, the careful design incorporates an easy grip cap, ensuring uncomplicated access to the product. This key feature makes Motusol particularly favourable for those experiencing hand strains or sprains.
