1% or 2% — which Diclac?
Both Diclac gels contain diclofenac, an anti-inflammatory applied to the skin. The difference is strength and how often you apply it: the 2% Max Relief gel is more concentrated and used twice a day, which many people find more convenient, while the 1% gel is applied more frequently. Both are for local muscle, joint and back pain.
