Scientific Evidence

Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. It works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, which are substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation.

Clinical trials have shown the efficacy of diclofenac in managing pain and inflammation associated with various musculoskeletal conditions. A study published in the Journal of Rheumatology demonstrated the superior effectiveness of diclofenac suppositories in providing rapid relief compared to oral formulations.

Consult your healthcare provider before using diclofenac suppositories, especially if you have a history of gastrointestinal disorders, cardiovascular disease, or are taking other medications.
