Diclofenac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), works by reducing pain, swelling, and inflammation by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins. The other ingredients, such as linseed oil, methyl salicylate, menthol, and capsaicin, work together to soothe sore muscles, reduce inflammation, and stimulate the release of a compound involved in communicating pain.
