Never stop a medicine you need because of this page. Diclofenac gel comes in two kinds: the milky “emulgel” type, which uses a coconut-derived ester to hold the oil and water together, and the clear alcohol-gel type, which usually doesn’t. Ask your pharmacist for a clear gel, and ask them to read the “excipients” line to you.
