Interesting. In Canada, Australia, Mexico & much of Europe, it is marketed for use on back, shoulder & neck pain. This must be an FDA thing?

Another interesting note - 2.32% Voltaren Gel was available over the counter for about a year, but is now prescription only. I assume there was evidence of side effects from overuse.
