Anyone who has had a strain or sprain knows how painful they can be. Taking medications, usually anti-inflammatories or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is usually the regular course of action, but since January, the Flector patch (diclofenac epolamine topical patch) has been available for this purpose in the United States.
According the manufacturer, two studies will be presented at the American Pain Society annual meeting indicating the patch’s effectiveness in relieving acute pain from mild strains, sprains, and contusions.
