Chemically, diclofenac etalhyaluronate consists of the drug diclofenac, a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug, covalently linked to hyaluronic acid.[3][4] In the body, diclofenac is slowly cleaved and released, allowing diclofenac etalhyaluronate to function as a sustained-release form of diclofenac.
