Solaraze is a topical medication primarily used for the treatment of actinic keratosis, a condition characterized by rough, scaly patches on the skin resulting from damage caused by long-term exposure to the sun. The active ingredient in Solaraze is diclofenac sodium, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by reducing inflammation and pain in the affected area. Solaraze gel is applied directly to the skin on the areas affected by actinic keratosis, providing a targeted treatment that helps to alleviate symptoms and potentially reduce the risk of progression to skin cancer. It is important for patients to follow their healthcare provider's instructions when using Solaraze, including how much to apply and how often, to ensure the best possible outcomes.
