interactions

Use of DicloAkut Pain Relief Gel together with other medicines Tell
your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking/using other medicines, have recently taken/used other medicines or intend to take/use other medicines. In the case of large-scale external use, interactions cannot be ruled out with certainty. Since the absorption of the active substance into the circulation is extremely low, interactions with other medicinal products are very unlikely.

Pregnancy, lactation and fertility
