Hello!
😀
Yes, you can use Voltaren gel for pain relief. This medicine is compatible with breastfeeding because it passes very weakly into breast milk.
It is important to follow the dosage and not exceed the maximum dose.
As for using this product without a prescription, a maximum use of 7-14 days is recommended.
Happy day!
