Following on from mugster asking about ibuprofen......diflonec is also banned...it’s sold as voltarene .in France, prob same in U.K.....they are tablets...but what about voltarene that comes as a spray you spray on to your affected area? As that doesn’t go near the stomach is it ok?

Just wondered .....Anyone know?

Debatable but my GP told me that creams etc were OK in small doses as the amount which got into the bloodstream was minimal. Its not the stomach you need to worry about but blood stream.
