I have been prescribed diclofenac gel and was wondering if there are any side effects. I was given this as oral nsaids are very hard on my stomach. Also, is this beneficial for a condition called Trigger finger? ## It can cause the same side effects as other NSAIDs, however, since it is topical, your body doesn't tend to absorb as much of it, so this prevents these problems for most people. It can generally help with any condition involving pain and inflammation, however, as with any drug, it doesn't work for everyone. As with any medication, the only thing you can really do is try it and see if it helps. ## If there's anything else I can help you with, please let me know. ## To Verwon, Thank you for the input. So far the diclofenac gel seems to help with the inflammation an...

Hi, I am taking diclofenac 50mg once a day (night) for about 3 months. Is it alright if I continue to take it at this dose for another month before I see my specialist again? Will it cause me any harm? If I don't take it daily, it will cause me unbearable pain the whole day. By the way, I'm taking it for my rheumatoid arthritis and I am 32 years old, female with no other medical history. ## This is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that is used to treat pain, fever, and inflammation. The FDA warns that it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding, and stomach irritation. Has your specialist told you to keep taking it? It is always best to follow your doctor's instructions. There is a risk of liver and stomach damage, if it is take...

i am taking 75mg of diclofenac twice a day. How safe is this drug. the internet says it is the most dangerous of all nsaids. Is this true at this dosage? ## Hi Roger, From what I could gather, the usual adult dose of Diclofenac ranges from 25-50 mg orally 3 to 4 times a day or 75 mg orally twice a day. Diclofenac Extended-release dosages are usually administered at 100 mg orally once a day. A number of webpages also make a point of mentioning that the maximum daily dose of Diclofenac is: 225 mg; or 200 mg if you're taking the extended release version. In my opinion, 75mg twice daily (150 mg total daily dose) should be fine for most individuals. However, dangerous side effects can happen with any drug depending the person. It's probably not something you'd want to take long t...

I don't want to go over the maxium dose, so is it ok to take 225mgs of diclofenac dr tablet a day? ## Hello, Ashley! How are you? If the instructions say just twice a day, then you should only take it twice a day, unless your doctor has told you to do otherwise. Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, so taking to much of it could cause stomach bleeding, stomach ulceration, liver damage or liver failure. Learn more Diclofenac details here. Is there anything else I can help with? ## My Dr has ordered 75 mg x3 aday..Ive been doing it for 5 months no side effectd

Can my 13 year old (140 lbs. 5'5") take diclofenac Dr 75 mg for back pain due to a pulled muscle? ## Hello, Jessi! How are you? DIclofenac is a prescription medication, so it shouldn't be given, unless the child's doctor has said that it's okay to do so. It is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, so you do need to be careful, since it carries the risk of causing stomach ulceration and increases the risk of bleeding. Is there anything else I can help with?

does this cause liver damage, what are the side effects ## Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that's used to treat pain, fever and swelling. Side effects may include: nausea, headache, dry mouth and dizziness. Learn more Diclofenac details here. And yes, it may cause liver damage in some people and please not that I have emphasized the word may. It happens to some people that take large amounts of it for long periods of time and yet others may do so for many years and never have a problem, so it is completely impossible to predict who will or will not have a problem develop from taking it. Has it been prescribed for you?

I'm currently taking a vitamin suplement called Bosley wich is something that supports healthy hair growing. Can I also take ditizidol Forte along with this other drug? ## What should i do my hair is hairfull they have a medicine for this. ## @Matt, Are you trying to say that your hair is falling out? RE: "my hair is hairfull". Also, is this something that's been going on for quite some time or do you think it may have been the recent result of a medication, dietary changes, or other possible factors attributing to "hair loss" (as I presume)?

Will this drug raise your sodium level or cause problems for someone on blood presssure medications? Can it cause a problem with your kidneys? ## The sodium in the name just refers to the type of chemical salt it is derived from, so no, it will not raise your sodium levels. However, Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and, as such, it is generally not advised to be used by people with high blood pressure, because it can cause fluid retention, which may lead to congestive heart failure. Has your doctor advised you to use this?

Can you take Diclofenac Sod when taking Cipro ## Actually, these two medications aren't generally prescribed together, due to the fact that combining them increases the risk of stimulation of the central nervous system and seizures. On the Ciprofloxacin Details page under Interactions it says "They may also interact with the GABA A receptor and cause neurological symptoms; this effect is augmented by certain nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs." Have they both been prescribed for you? ## yes ive been prescribed the two drugs ## I've been on dicloflanac and the dr prescribed me cipro

My pill bottle has 2 different tablets in it. The label says Diclofenac 100 mg. One tablet is round and peach-colored with GG 904 printed on one side. The other one is a same-size round pink with 93 on one side and 1401 on the other. ## GG 904 is Diclofenac XR 100 mg and I also located the other pill but it says 93 1041 instead of 93 1401. 93 1041 is also round and pink, this pill is Diclofenac 100 mg. The only difference is the first pill is XR (Extended Release), meaning it lasts longer in your system. To learn more click on the link below... Do you have any more questions or information to add?
