What Is Olfen

is olfen 50 mg. safe to use daily as a muscle relaxer. ## From the dosing and the question, I believe the Olfen being asked about in this case was the one that just contains Diclofenac, which is actually a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, not a muscle relaxant. It can help with pain, fever and swelling, though. However, you shouldn't use it daily for a long period of time, without your doctors approval, because there are some risks that may be associated with doing so, such as stomach ulceration, elevated blood pressure and fluid retention. You can learn more Diclofenac details here. Are there any questions or comments?
