"Some things you need to consider. Maybe this was better when a prescription was required as it cost me $11.49 for a 50 g tube. Each application for knees or the lower body is 4.5 inch long ribbon or 4 g. Which means this tube at the recommended applications, 4, per day will last you three days. Some things that you should take into account also is if you have high blood pressure or kidney disease, then you really shouldn’t be taking this stuff. Those are two very prominent medical conditions in older people which also happens to be the same people that have the arthritis problems that need the product. So in my case and in my opinion it turns out that Voltaren is not only ridiculously expensive, but useless."

"I found this cream to provide excellent pain relief for my bum knee. No complaints about it at ll in that respect. However, it does contain NSAIDS, which can adversely affect kidney function. It affected mine and my doctor told me to quit using it. Otherwise, I highly recommend it."

"I was prescribed this medication for joint pain and swelling in the elbows and feet. Took for 2 months. Last week my doctor had to take me off because I developed allergy to the medication with rash and low fever. Worked okay but not worth the allergic reaction."

"After seeing the foot doctor for what I described as pain off and on as if my toe was broke or spur. I was given voltaren and it seems to work at times, the biofreeze did nothing for arthritis pain, so I give voltaren thumbs up for temporary relief."
