Relaxyl Gel 20gm

• Relaxyl Gel helps in the symptomatic relief of various musculoskeletal conditions such as spasms, sprains and strains, myalgias, myositis/contractures, cervical spondylitis, lumbago, frozen shoulder, arthritis, bursitis, and tendonitis.
• It is also used for sports injuries associated with muscle spasms. It alleviates discomfort, reduces swelling, and improves mobility, offering targeted relief for these conditions.

• Apply a small amount of Relaxyl Gel to the affected area.
• Gently massage until it is fully absorbed.
• Place the cap tightly after use.
• Wash your hands thoroughly after applying the gel.
• Avoid getting the gel in your eyes, mouth, or nose.
• Do not apply the gel to open wounds or damaged skin.

Relaxyl Gel is applied externally to the affected area. It is meant for external use only and should not be taken orally.

The medicinal activity of the active ingredients in Relaxyl Gel is as follows:

• Diclofenac (1.16%): It is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with potent anti-inflammatory, analgesic (pain-relieving), and antipyretic (fever-reducing) properties. When applied topically, it inhibits the production of prostaglandins, chemicals responsible for promoting inflammation, pain, and swelling. By reducing the levels of prostaglandins, diclofenac helps alleviate local inflammation and pain, making it beneficial for conditions such as muscle and joint injuries.
• Linseed Oil (Flaxseed Oil) (3%): It contains omega-3 fatty acids, specifically alpha-linolenic acid, which have anti-inflammatory properties. When applied topically, it helps reduce inflammation in the affected area and relieve pain and swelling.
• Methyl Salicylate (10%): It exhibits mild analgesic properties to improve musculoskeletal pain.
• Menthol (10%): It is a natural compound known for its cooling sensation when applied to the skin. It acts as a counterirritant, creating a temporary cooling effect that distracts from pain sensations. 

• Store this medicine at a temperature not exceeding 30 ºC.
• Do not freeze.
• Keep Relaxyl Gel away from children.

• Apply a warm compress or bath to relax muscles and alleviate pain. For acute injuries, use cold packs to reduce inflammation and swelling.
• Perform gentle stretches to improve flexibility and prevent muscle stiffness. Avoid overstretching, especially if you have an injury.
• Elevate the affected limb to reduce swelling and inflammation.
• Maintain good posture to reduce the strain on your musculoskeletal system, especially in conditions like cervical spondylitis and lumbago.
• Ensure your workspace and daily activities are ergonomically friendly, with proper seating, desk setup, and lifting techniques.
• Choose comfortable, supportive shoes to minimise the impact on joints and muscles.
• Maintain a healthy weight to alleviate stress on joints, which is particularly important for conditions like arthritis.
• Consider using compression bandages or sleeves to support the injured area and minimise swelling for strains and sprains.
