Overview
Voltaren SR 75mg contains diclofenac sodium, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), in a sustained-release (SR) tablet that releases the medicine gradually for longer-lasting relief. It relieves pain and reduces inflammation and swelling, making it useful for conditions such as arthritis (osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis), back pain, joint and muscle pain, and other painful inflammatory conditions. The slow-release format means fewer doses through the day. Voltaren SR is prescribed for adults needing ongoing relief from moderate inflammatory pain, used at the lowest effective dose under a doctor's guidance.
Active ingredient: Diclofenac sodium 75 mg per sustained-release tablet.
Directions for Use
This medicine requires a prescription. Use only as directed by your doctor or pharmacist. Voltaren SR is usually taken once daily (or as prescribed), swallowed whole with water. Do not crush or chew, as this would release the medicine too quickly. Take it with or after food to protect the stomach. Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest time needed, and do not take other NSAID-containing medicines at the same time.
Avoid if you are allergic to diclofenac, aspirin or other NSAIDs, or have a stomach ulcer, or severe heart, liver or kidney disease; not for use in the last three months of pregnancy. Use with caution if you have high blood pressure, heart disease, asthma or a history of indigestion. NSAIDs can raise the risk of stomach bleeding and cardiovascular events. Seek help for black stools, vomiting blood, chest pain or breathlessness. Avoid alcohol. Tell your doctor about other medicines and if breastfeeding. Store below 30C in a dry place.
