Is Diclofenac A Narcotic Drug

Is this a narcotic? I need to know because I am on parole ## No, the FDA classifies Diclofenac as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that's used to treat pain, fever and swelling. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and stomach irritation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Are opiates in the medication dicoflenac? I recently took a drug panel and came up positive for opiates because I was taking this medication.

How does diclofenac sodium enteric-coated (ec) 75mg tab compare to a percocet 5/325? Does it work the same and is it a narcotic / opiate? ## No, Diclofenac is actually classified as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, it is used to treat pain, fever, and swelling. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding, and stomach irritation. So it also does not work the same. Has your doctor prescribed it for you? ## I need to know if Diclofenac Sodium Er 75 mg has Morphine in it? ## Hi Shaw - actually no, Diclofenac is its own drug completely different from Morphine. It is not even an opiate medication. Hope this helps!

I purchased diclofenac sodium & codeine phosphate tablets 50mg, but I cant find any images to identify it as such. It came in a foiled back pop out sleeve of 10. It's a light peach or pink color with a score on one side and nothing on the other. It also says Duranzo on it. My vision is not so good so i cant make out the pharmaceutical co. Can you help me please? ## Hello, Mini! How are you? This combination isn't available in the U.S., it is a foreign medication from India. Duranzo is listed as containing Diclofenac and Codeine, but since foreign medications aren't regulated like U.S. prescription drugs, there's no way to confirm that's what you've received. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit formin...

i live in mx and the doc gave me this med is it dangerous?im knd of fraked out cause hes always given me tylex cd and i heard the diclofenaco wasnt good,please help i had an operation n my back ## Lertus CD contains Codeine and Diclofenac, so it combines a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory with a narcotic pain reliever. The main concerns about it are the the Diclofenac can cause stomach irritation, which could lead to ulcers and long-term use could cause liver damage, but this only happens to a very small percentage of people that use it. Normal side effects include: nausea, dizziness, stomach irritation and constipation. Learn more: Have you tried discussing your concerns with your doctor?

Sorry about the pain that you're in. The two ingredients are 7.5mgs of the narcotic Hydrocodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen. The Acetaminophen can have some slight blood thinning effect, so I'd suggest checking with your doctor, before taking it, to see if it is safe for you to do so. Learn more Lortab details here. Since it contains a narcotic, it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, dizziness and constipation.

I am taking vicodin. In Mexico I bought Tylex CD & Lertus CD.

I suggest you see a doctor ASAP! ## Shelly, the Vicodin contains Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone. Tylex-CD contains Acetaminophen and Codeine and the Lertus--CD is llisted as containing Diclofenac and Codeine, so these are all different medications. The Codeine is still a narcotic, but the dosage and safe amount you can take in a day can be quite different. Do you have the dosage information on any of them?

Dr prescribed Xartemis XR for pain in herniated discs in cervical spine. Then the following day prescribed me Diclofenac Sod EC 50mg for the same condition. I had these filled at two different pharmacys. Now my concern is are these ok to be taken together? ## Hello, Susan! How are you? Where they prescribed by the same doctor? It seems rather odd to prescribe both, especially in time released formulations, though it can be done, if there are specific reasons to do so, such as a lot of swelling. Xartemis contains Oxycodone and Acetaminophen in a time released formulation. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. While the Diclofenac EC is an extended release non...

I was shocked today when I picked up a months supply of flector pain patches.Last month I paid $22,this month $60!Has anyone else noticed a sharp increase in price or is this just another way to get people off pain meds? ## Hello, Sharon! How are you? I'm sorry about the price increase. However, it's really just a matter of supply and demand. The price may change at any time. This isn't a narcotic, so it's not one of the ones they're trying to cut down on being used. Flector contains the active ingredient Diclofenac, which the FDA classifies as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory. Its typical side effects may include skin irritation, redness, rash, headache and nausea. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Be glad you pay so little for a month supply. I paid $495 y...
