The Powergesic Plus Gel contains the following ingredients: 

• Diclofenac diethylamine (1%): It belongs to the group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) with potent anti-inflammatory, analgesic (pain-relieving), and antipyretic (fever-reducing) properties. When applied topically, it inhibits the production of prostaglandins, chemicals responsible for promoting inflammation, pain, and swelling. By reducing the levels of prostaglandins, diclofenac helps alleviate local inflammation and pain, making it beneficial for conditions such as muscle and joint injuries.
• Methyl salicylate (10%): It belongs to one of the group of NSAIDs that inhibits the synthesis of prostaglandins, leading to decreased swelling and infiltration of inflamed tissues. 
• Menthol (5%): These are cooling agents and provide a cooling sensation. This sensation distracts from the pain and may help reduce the perception of discomfort at the application site.
• Linseed oil (Flaxseed oil) (3%): This oil may help increase blood flow. This increased circulation can assist in reducing inflammation and easing pain in the affected area.
