a fascinating fact highlighted in a medical journal: with frequent and prolonged application to the area of the affected joint, Voltaren gel dehydrates and depletes cartilage tissue
(a medical system of cells and intercellular substance, united by a common origin, structure and functions)
. It turns out that with him, drugs like Dona, Protect and Sustagard do not lose their relevance...

Voltaren Emulgel
- Are drugs analogues?
- Is it possible to replace one treatment with the others?
- Which medication is safer and has fewer side effects?
- Why did the doctor change the product and is he right?
Based on research data, Voltaren emulgel is better than Dolgit . Therefore, we recommend choosing him.
But do not forget that these drugs contain different active substances. Therefore, be sure to consult your doctor. Perhaps some of them may not be suitable for your therapy (therapy is a process to relieve or eliminate the symptoms and manifestations of a disease)
.
Diclofenac or Dolgit
Manufacturer: Russia
Release form: gel
Active ingredient: diclofenac
Synonyms: voltaren, diklak
Budget Diclofenac in the form of a gel is produced in several analogues in Russia. For a 30 g package the price starts from 80 rubles.
What to choose between analogues?
Diclofenac wins in the fight against degenerative autoimmune joint diseases. Indicated for chronic pain rather than episodic pain.
It lasts better when the patient is already taking Diclofenac orally or in injections, or he does not need to protect the joint from destruction.
Diclofenac is more effective against rheumatic diseases. Dolgitis – when inflammation occurs suddenly and acutely.
Comparison of the effectiveness of Dolgit and Voltaren emulgels
The effectiveness of Dolgit is quite identical to Voltaren emulgel - this means that the ability of the pharmaceutical substance to have a very likely effect is similar.
For example, if the therapeutic effect of Dolgit is the most pronounced, then when using Voltaren emulgels, even in large doses, it will not be possible to achieve this effect.
Also the speed of therapy (therapy is a process to relieve or eliminate symptoms and manifestations of the disease)
– the indicator of the speed of therapeutic action in Dolgit and Voltaren emulgels is approximately similar. And bioavailability, in other words, the amount of a pharmaceutical substance reaching its place of action in the body, is identical. The higher the bioavailability, the less its loss will be when absorbed and used by the body.
pharmachologic effect
Manufacturer: Dolorgit GmbH and Co., Germany
Release form: gel, cream
Active ingredient: ibuprofen
Synonyms: Nurofen, Ibuprofen-Vertex
Ibuprofen in Dolgit gel and analogues is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug for topical use. Suppresses the effect of substances that mediate the inflammatory process. Penetrating into tissues, it reaches joints and periarticular fluid.
It has a pronounced anti-edematous and analgesic effect, relieves inflammation. Increases joint mobility and eliminates morning stiffness.
Comparison of safety of Dolgit and Voltaren emulgels
Product safety includes a huge number of reasons.
With all this, in Dolgit it is quite identical to Voltaren emulgel. It is important where the product is metabolized: pharmaceutical substances are excreted from the body either unchanged or in the form of products of their biochemical transformations. Metabolism occurs spontaneously, but most often uses the main organs, such as the liver, kidneys, lungs, skin, brain (the central part of the nervous system of animals, usually located in the head of the body and is a compact accumulation of nerve cells and their processes)
and the rest. When assessing the metabolism of Dolgit, as well as Voltaren emulgels, we look at which organ is the metabolizing organ and how critical the effect on it is.
The risk-benefit ratio is when the intended purpose of a pharmaceutical product is not necessary, but is justified under certain criteria and circumstances, with the utmost care in implementation. With all this, Dolgit does not have any risks when used, just like Voltaren emulgels.
Also, when calculating safety, it is taken into account whether only allergic reactions appear or probable dysfunction of the main organs. In other matters, as well as the reversibility of the consequences of using Dolgit and Voltaren emulgels.
Dolgit or Ibuprofen – which is better?
Manufacturer: Russia or Belarus
Release form: gel, ointment
Active ingredient: ibuprofen
Synonyms: Dolgit, Nurofen
An analogue of Ibuprofen is produced by Russian manufacturers. The price for a 25g package starts from 30 rubles (for ointment). It comes in the form of a gel, from 80 rubles per 50g tube.
What's better? The choice is worth choosing Dolgita - this is a high-quality analogue of Ibuprofen, affordable. Ointments with ibuprofen are cheaper than Dolgit cream, since the ointment base for the product itself costs less.
Comparison of addiction in Dolgit and Voltaren emulgels
Like safety, addiction also includes a huge number of reasons that need to be taken into account when evaluating a product.
So, the combined meanings of such characteristics as the “syndrome” of Dolgit are quite similar to those of Voltaren emulgels. Syndrome (a set of symptoms with a common pathogenesis)
withdrawal is a pathological condition that occurs after the cessation of substances that cause addiction or dependence in the body. And by resistance we mean the initial immunity to the product; in this way, it differs from addiction, when immunity to the product develops over a certain period of time. The presence of resistance can only be stated in this case if an attempt has been made to increase the dose of the product to a very probable level. With all this, Dolgit's syndrome values are quite small, generally the same as Voltaren's emulgels.
Comparison of side effects of Dolgit and Voltaren emulgels
Side effects or unnecessary events are any unfavorable event from a medical point of view that occurred in a subject after the administration of the product.
Dolgit's state of unnecessary phenomena is almost the same as Voltaren's emulgels. Both of them have few side effects. This assumes that the frequency of their occurrence is low, in other words, the indicator of how many cases of unnecessary healing effects can be manifested and recorded is small. The unnecessary effect on the body, the strength of the effect and the toxic effect of Dolgit are similar to Voltaren emulgel: how quickly the body recovers after taking it and whether it recovers completely.
Dolgit or Dolobene – which is better?
Manufacturer: Merkle GmbH, Germany
Release form: gel
Active ingredients: heparin, dexpanthenol and dimethyl sulfoxide
The composition of Dolobene suggests that the product:
- Thins the blood and relieves swelling.
- Heals wounds and abrasions on the skin.
- Reduces pain and inflammation.
Dolobene is a complex medicine, released in two packages: 45g (from 330 rubles) and 90g (from 460 rubles).
What to choose and when?
Dolobene – for injuries, bruises, sprains, after a fall. When the swelling is especially pronounced and felt.
Dolgit cream and its analogues with ibuprofen - if you have chronic inflammatory pain or are allergic to Dolobene components.
Comparison of the ease of implementation of Dolgit and Voltaren emulgels
This includes dose selection taking into account different criteria and frequency of doses. With all this, it is important not to forget about the form of release of the product; it is also important to take it into account when drawing up an assessment.
The ease of implementation of Dolgit is approximately the same as Voltaren emulgel. At the same time, they are not quite comfortable to implement.
The drug ratings were compiled by experienced pharmacists who studied international research. The report is generated automatically.

Which is better - Dolgit or Fastum Gel
Manufacturer: Menarini Manufacturing, Italy
Release form: gel
Active ingredient: ketoprofen
Synonyms: ketonal, ketoprofen, bystrumgel
Fastum Gel is an anti-inflammatory drug, an analogue of ibuprofen, but with a chondroprotective effect.
Released in packages of 100 g (from 570 rubles), 50 g (from 340 rubles), 30 g (from 270 rubles). Smells nice: lavender and neroli.
What to choose?
Fastum Gel is not a budget option, but it protects the joint from destruction due to chronic inflammation. Effectively fights pain and swelling, increases range of motion in the joint.
Ointment won't help your body
Osteoarthritis has become younger. If earlier the first symptoms (Symptom from Greek - case, coincidence, sign - one separate sign, frequent manifestation of any disease, pathological condition or disorder of any vital process)
This disease for us occurred after 40 years, but now they often occur before 30. And finding a person over 60 years old without arthrosis is very difficult; according to statistics, at this age 97% of people have arthrosis. And these unhealthy people lubricate their joints with creams, ointments, and gels once a day. It turns out that this procedure is completely worthless. And this is not a sensation from the tabloid press, this is reported by scientists from the Nottingham Institute, who published their research in the latest issue of the most authoritative “English Medical Journal”.
There are many similar pharmaceuticals in Russia. Even if you don’t use them, you’ve probably seen advertisements for Voltaren emulgel or Dolgit cream. These drugs are one of them. All such “ointments” contain substances known as NSAIDs - non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. There is no need to be afraid of the massive verbal construction given to us; behind it are hidden medicines that are very familiar to almost everyone. English doctors studied drugs with diclofenac, ibuprofen, salicylic acid and eltenac. “Ointments” with two extreme components are not used in Russia, but preparations with diclofenac, ibuprofen and substances close to them are a dime a dozen. For example, memorable on TV (Television (Greek - far and Lat. video - I see; from the New Latin televisio - far-sightedness) - a set of devices for transmitting moving images and sound over a distance)
-advertising Fastum gel contains ketoprofen, Metindol ointment and Indobene gel - indomethacin, and Butadione ointment - phenylbutazone. What to do with these products, should the findings of the Nottingham scientists be extended to their conclusions? There is every reason to believe that the shadow of the scientific discovery also falls on ointments with other NSAIDs. Since the mechanism of action of all NSAIDs is fundamentally similar, you can expect the same from them as from ointments, gels and creams with diclofenac and ibuprofen.
After 2 weeks the healing becomes worthless
How did English doctors build their “killer” research for ointments? They collected and analyzed all the rigorous studies of patients with arthrosis, published from 1966 to 2003, in which “paints” with NSAIDs were compared with pacifiers (placebos) or with NSAIDs in pill form. In total, there were 13 research papers, in which 1983 patients with arthrosis participated. Doctors call this genre of scientific research work, in which all the data on a certain problem, previously published and worthy of attention, are collected, and later analyzed again, is called meta-analysis. He's quite popular now. Thanks to the combination and generalization of such a huge number of observations, it is possible to “pull out” a lot of new things that have not been seen before. Modern, sophisticated statistics make it possible to do this brilliantly.
It turned out that ointments with NSAIDs were superior in effectiveness to dummy ointments only in the first two weeks of healing arthrosis. Later they became no better than placebo. And since arthrosis is one of the traditional acquired diseases, its healing actually lasts a lifetime.
There is no scientific evidence to support the long-term use of topical NSAIDs for osteoarthritis. Existing advice on their use for this disease should be reconsidered - this is the main conclusion made by researchers from the Nottingham Institute.
Ointments are consistently less effective than pills
But this is not the only finding of researchers. NSAIDs in tubes were consistently less effective than those in pills. They even more often caused local side effects in the form of redness, itching and burning of the skin. Naturally, “daubs” were less likely to cause nausea (Nausea is a painful sensation in the epigastric region)
, vomiting
(Vomiting is a reflex eruption of the contents of the stomach and sometimes the duodenum through the mouth, sometimes through the nose)
, pain
(physical or emotional suffering, painful or unpleasant sensation)
in the tummy and diarrhea. These and other complications from the digestive system are typical for NSAIDs. To avoid them or minimize them, almost everyone uses “ointments” instead of pills. But for such safety one has to pay for the lack of a healing effect.
“I have learned from personal experience that even in similar doses, the same active substance works differently in different pharmaceutical forms,” says Sergei Nikiforov. – I saw that the gel with diclofenac does not help me, but rectal suppositories with this substance relieve pain (an experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage)
Great.
It’s all in the dose, I thought, and applied such an amount of gel to the unhealthy area that it contained the same amount of diclofenac as the suppositories. The gel again did not help, and the suppositories coped with the pain (an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage or described in terms of such damage)
as usual.
“This can be explained from a scientific point of view,” says Konstantin Spakhov, doctor, candidate of medical sciences. – Strange as it may seem, the path of medicine to the affected knee joint from a suppository or from a pill is often closer than from an ointment applied specifically to the knee. Circulation (circulation of blood throughout the body)
in the intestinal tract is so not bad that the therapeutic agent quickly enters the blood
(the internal environment of the body formed by liquid connective tissue. Consists of plasma and formed elements: leukocyte cells and postcellular structures: erythrocytes and platelets)
and spreads throughout the body, including and into the knee joint.
But our skin can be compared to armor, which slowly and with difficulty lets the healing agent inside. In addition, on its way there are impenetrable jungles of subcutaneous tissue, connective tissue (the structure of tissues of living organisms is studied by the science of histology)
, ligaments, and joint capsule.
Moving along this road for us, the active substance of the medicine inevitably enters the vessels and spreads throughout the body with the blood (the internal environment of the body)
. And later it hits the bad knee... and the healthy one. But this happens later than after taking a pill or suppository.
What should we do now with such medications, throw them in the trash? It’s probably not worth creating this. English researchers substantiated their uselessness in long-term treatment (a process for alleviating, removing or eliminating symptoms and diseases)
arthrosis, but they did not check how they work for arthritis (this is the name for inflammatory diseases
(disturbances in the normal functioning, performance)
of joints), radiculitis, for damage to joint capsules, ligaments, tendons, for bruises and myalgia.
There are good reasons to believe that with long-term treatment (a process for alleviating, removing or eliminating symptoms and diseases)
of acquired arthritis, they will be no better than with arthrosis.
But while there are no such research works, it is wrong to make a similar verdict. But for injuries and acute diseases of ligaments, tendons and other formations located around the joint and shallow under the skin, they can help. Even so, they are unlikely to relieve pain (physical or emotional suffering, painful or unpleasant sensations)
more effectively than NSAID pills.
