AIDS: An AIDS physician at New York's St. Vincent's Hospital reports considerable success with a topical formulation of the prescription drug Voltaren (a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory in the same class as Advil or Aleve). Dr. David Kaufman found the drug reduces pain and has essentially no side effects. The topical formulation, called Emulgel, is not sold in the United States. Information is requested about results using Emulgel and other brands of topical diclofenac sodium for treating neuropathy. Readers are also asked to share experiences with topical use of other anti-inflammatory drugs for relieving neuropathy. Contact information is provided.
