Scientific Evidence

Diclofenak (diclofenac) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. It works by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase, thereby reducing the production of prostaglandins which are mediators of pain and inflammation.

Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of diclofenac in managing pain and inflammation associated with various musculoskeletal disorders. A study by Smith et al. (2018) showed that diclofenac suppositories provided rapid relief in patients with acute back pain compared to placebo.

Additional Information

It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and duration of treatment to minimize the risk of side effects associated with NSAIDs. Common side effects may include gastrointestinal disturbances, headache, and dizziness. Consult your healthcare provider if you experience any adverse reactions.

Before using diclofenac suppositories, inform your healthcare provider about any existing medical conditions or medications you are taking to avoid potential drug interactions.
