I have been prescribed this ointment and I carried it all over France last year. The prescription comes in a container the size of a hair spray can and dosage is measured by pumps.
However, I saw Voltaren sold in toothpaste tube size in France as an OTC drug.
Can I buy it in a pharmacy in Italy?
Yes, you can buy it over the counter, we bought a tube in Venice.
Thanks so much. I need to buy it in Venice. too. We are on the Best of VFR tour in June.
Voltaren is good stuff! Learned of it from a family member who plays serious soccer in an over-65 league and gets lots of bumps & bruises.
Yes, and you can find it at 1% and 2% concentrations.
Yes, it comes in a tube, somewhat larger than a toothpaste tube. You do not need a prescription. Good for smearing on the affected part. Good stuff.
In some countries, including the UK, it is called Voltarol.
