What is Solaraze Gel (Diclofenac) prescribed for?

Actinic keratoses is described as lesions on the outer skin caused by too much exposure to the ultraviolet rays of sunlight. They are also the beginnings of skincancer, and most appear after the age of 40. People with fair skin, blond or red hair, and blue or green eyes are most at risk of developing these rough, scaly patches, or keratoses. A history of a sunburn also increases the risk. If not treated, these patches can develop into a more serious form of skin cancer, although this is unusual.

Diclofenac is known as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). And this medication is used to treat a skin condition known as Actinic keratoses.

This medication is to be used on the skin only. Make sure to wash and dry your hands before applying the medication. Once you’re ready gently apply enough of the medication to cover the affected area of the skin, this is usually done twice a day or as directed by your doctor. Do not apply the medication in or around the eyes, open skin wounds, or infected/scraped/burned skin. If you do get the medication in those areas, flush with plenty of water.

The dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. To reduce your risk of side effects, use this medication at the lowest effective dose for the shortest possible time. Do not increase your dose or use this drug more often or for longer than prescribed.

Kidney problems can sometimes occur with the use of NSAID medications, including diclofenac. Problems are more likely to occur if you are dehydrated, have heart failure or kidney disease, are an older adult, or if you take certain medications (see also Drug Interactions section). Drink plenty of fluids as directed by your doctor to prevent dehydration and tell your doctor right away if you have a change in the amount of urine.

While minor, some of these side effects may occur. They are as follows; Rash, scaling, dry skin, swelling, or itching may occur at the application site. However if any of these persist or worsen, it’s best to speak with your doctor right away.

Why is Solaraze gel so expensive?

Solaraze Gel is listed as a Tier 4 medication on Medicare’s formulary. And Tier 4 drugs are usually referred to as non-preferred brand-name drugs. This means they tend to be a bit more expensive than any other medications on Tiers below it. However, you can still find a more affordable option on an online Canadian Pharmacy such as My Drug Center. We have a starting price of $122.00 for 50g.
