How It Works (Mechanism of Action)
Zeromac Gel works by blocking certain chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation. When applied to the skin, it penetrates the tissue and provides localized relief from discomfort.
The active ingredient, Diclofenac diethylamine, is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It inhibits the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX), which is responsible for the production of prostaglandins, substances that mediate inflammation and pain. By reducing these chemicals, the gel helps to alleviate pain and swelling in the affected area.
