The active ingredient in Voltaren Arthritis Pain Gel is diclofenac potassium. It is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory pain reliever that works by reducing the production of inflamed joint tissue. It relieves pain when inflammation or inflammation-related chemicals (such as histamin, Codeine, paraben, and salicylate) are elevated. Elevated levels of these compounds cause paronychia, joint pain and inflammation.
