It would be interesting to know! Surely the compounding pharmacy can tell the patient, as we have a right to know what we are taking! Let us know, please, if you find out! Yes, Voltaren is a brand name for generic diclofenac. Almost all prescription NSAID capsules or pills are (eventually) not tolerated by my stomach. Except for aspirin, go figure (taken c food!).

@wisco50 - I just pulled out my container to check the ingredients and I'm a bit embarrassed. Here's what it says:

10% Diclofenac powder in diffusimax gel. Apply to affected area(s) twice a day.

TEN percent - not ONE percent 😮 That could be why there is no comparison with OTC meds 😉
