Flector Patch

Product Description

Managing acute pain caused by sports injuries or daily accidents requires a solution that addresses inflammation exactly where it hurts. The Flector Patch (Diclofenac Epolamine) is a specialized transdermal system designed to provide localized relief for acute pain due to minor strains, sprains, and contusions (bruises).

How It Works
The Flector Patch belongs to a class of medications known as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The active ingredient, diclofenac epolamine (1.3%), is embedded within the patch. Once applied to intact skin, the medication is absorbed through the dermis, targeting the underlying tissues. This transdermal delivery system offers a distinct advantage over oral painkillers by concentrating the medication at the site of the injury while minimizing the systemic exposure often associated with pills.

Why Choose Flector Patch?

Localized Action: Ideal for treating ankles, knees, wrists, and elbows affected by sprains or strains.
Convenient Application: The patch adheres comfortably to the skin and is typically applied twice daily (every 12 hours), providing continuous dosing.
Reduced Systemic Load: By bypassing the digestive tract, the patch may reduce the risk of certain stomach-related side effects common with oral NSAIDs.
Usage and Application
The Flector Patch is intended for external use only. Ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free of cuts or infections before application. If the patch begins to peel, the edges can be taped down, or a mesh netting can be used to secure it. Wash your hands immediately after handling the patch to avoid contact with eyes or mucous membranes.

Note: As this contains an NSAID, it is important to consult your healthcare provider regarding your medical history, specifically concerning cardiovascular or gastrointestinal health, before use
