This oral medication contains diclofenac, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that helps reduce swelling and pain associated with arthritis. It can also be used to relieve pain, swelling, and stiffness from the back pain of osteoarthritis of the knees and hips. The most common side effects are redness, swelling, or tenderness of the joints. These include joint pain, stiffness, or pain due to the strain of standing up. If these side effects are bothersome, they may need to be treated by a medical doctor or other professional. The dosage of this medication will depend on the individual and the condition being treated. It is usually taken for 5 to 10 days. The duration of treatment can vary from person to person.
Diclofenac belongs to a class of drugs known as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). These drugs work by stopping the body from producing prostaglandins that cause inflammation in the body. Prostaglandins are chemicals that cause inflammation and pain. If the prostaglandins do not provide relief, the affected area may come to be difficult to see. The symptoms of inflammation include swelling, tenderness, or tenderness of the skin, redness, blistering, peeling, or loosening of the skin, which can cause pain and inflammation. If these symptoms continue for more than a few days, medical help should be sought. This can be done by treating the swelling and pain with local anesthetics, such as lidocaine or other local anesthetics. Topical anesthetics are available under different brand names such as Voltaren Emulsions, Anafranil, and Trilafon. Topical anesthetics are usually administered in the form of a cream or solution that is applied to the skin and numbed by local anesthetic or other numbing medication. Topical anesthetics should be used with caution in people with stomach ulcers or other gastric issues. Topical anesthetics should be used with caution in people who are taking other NSAIDs, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). They may be more effective when they are used with local anesthetic agents such as lidocaine, benzocaine, or other local anesthetics.
