DOWFEN GEL 25GM 1S

Product Description

Dowfen Gel contains Ketoprofen 2.5%, a topical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for localized relief of pain, inflammation, and stiffness. It works by reducing the production of prostaglandins at the site of application, helping to relieve pain and swelling directly where needed.
