Setolac Gel


Product introduction

Setolac Gel is a topical medicine used to reduce inflammation and pain associated with muscular pain. It is particularly effective for conditions such as sprains, strains, and everyday muscle fatigue. It promotes the relaxation of tense muscles and improves mobility.

Apply a small amount of Setolac Gel to the affected area and gently massage it into the skin until absorbed. Follow the recommended dosage and frequency instructed by your doctor or as indicated on the packaging. Avoid washing or wiping the area immediately after application to allow the medicine to work effectively.


Setolac Gel is generally well tolerated, however, it may cause application site reactions such as redness, itching, or a slight burning feeling in some people. These symptoms are usually temporary and resolve on their own. If the irritation persists or worsens, stop using it and consult a doctor.


While using Setolac Gel, avoid applying it to open wounds, cuts, or sensitive areas like the eyes, nose, or mouth. Do not use Setolac Gel if you have a known history of allergic reactions to any of its ingredients. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should consult their doctor before using this medication.
