Composition

Pharmacology
Diclofenac Diethylammonium is systemically absorbed through the skin, it inhibits the enzyme cyclo-oxygenase, thus reducing the formation of PGE2. Moreover, it also increases the uptake of Arachidonic acid into the cellullar pool.
Oleum Lini contains predominantly Essential Fatty Acids i.e. µ Linolenic acid.  On percutaneous absorbtion, µ- Linolenic acid gets converted to Elcosapentanoic acid(EPA). EPA is acted upon by cyclo-oxygahase enzyme to produce prostaglandin E3 which is a weak inflammatory agent. Presence of EPA prevents the action of cyclo-oxygenase on Archidonic acid which reduces its coversion to PGE2(a highly inflammatory agent).  Presence of PGE3 itself modulates the inflammatory response through a feedback machanism.

Menthol is a vasodiator.  It dilates the blood vessels, produces a feeling of coolness and produces anallgesia.

Methyl salicylate is a known anti-inflammatory agent
.
Mephenisn is a internunical neurone blocking agent, its primary site of action is the spinal internunical neurone which modulates reflexes maintaining muscle tone.   It is a centrally acting skeletal muscle relaxtant used for symtomatic treatment of painful muscle spasm.
