Diclofenac
Description:
Voveran SR 75mg Tab and Voveran SR 100mg Tab contain diclofenac sodium, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve pain, inflammation, and stiffness associated with various conditions. Diclofenac works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, substances in the body that contribute to pain and inflammation.
The “SR” designation stands for sustained release, meaning that the medication is released slowly and steadily over an extended period, providing longer-lasting pain relief compared to immediate-release formulations. These sustained-release tablets are particularly useful for managing chronic conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis, where continuous pain relief is often needed.
The 75mg and 100mg strengths allow for dosage adjustments based on the severity of the condition and the patient’s response. It is crucial to take Voveran SR exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The tablets should be swallowed whole and not crushed or chewed, as this can disrupt the sustained-release mechanism.
Common side effects associated with diclofenac and other NSAIDs can include gastrointestinal disturbances such as stomach pain, nausea, and diarrhea. Long-term use may also increase the risk of cardiovascular events and kidney problems. Therefore, it is important to use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration necessary. Patients with a history of stomach ulcers or heart disease should use diclofenac with caution and under close medical supervision. Regular monitoring by a doctor is essential during long-term treatment with Voveran SR.
