Lori - I find it helpful because I have to strictly limit oral NSAIDS. Not everyone gets relief, but it is very useful for severely achy joints. Especially my hands, where I apply it over a beeswax cream and rub it in. The curcumin has helped a great deal too, especially with my bad knee, shoulders and elbows.
Generic versions of Voltaren are now readily available too.

Sue, I take CurcuminRich double-strength Theracurmin, which seems to help some. Naproxen wiped me out, so I take only mild OTC NSAIDS when I really hurt. I'll try the Voltaren idea. Thanks again! I've decided to stop taking NAC for a couple of weeks. However, I fell on Friday evening and needed 14 stitches in my forehead, so I'll have to try to figure out what pains are due to what problem 🙂
