Diclofenac is a strong anti-inflammatory painkiller. It relieves pain, swelling and stiffness in arthritis, injuries and other painful conditions.

What is it used for?
- Rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and ankylosing spondylitis
- Back pain and muscle or joint injuries
- Period pain
- Pain after surgery or dental work
- Migraine (some forms)
How does it work?
Diclofenac blocks the COX enzymes that make prostaglandins, the chemicals that cause pain and swelling.
