What Is Mylan Diclofenac

Recently a dr prescribed Codorol and Indometruacin for me for tooth ache. I am just wondering what are these drugs? ## From what I've found, Codorol contains Paracetamol and Codeine, so it's a narcotic analgesic, used to treat pain. Indomethacin is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that's used to treat pain and swelling. Are there any other comments or questions? ## Are codorol same as paracentamol? ## I need yo help on health issues. ## What are Ronmoxy, codorol, loratadine, Mylan-diclofenac sodium tablets for cause they gave me I was coughing ## I have pain in my abdominal region. Can i take codorol? ## Can I use Codorol for knee pain and swelling?

What is the difference between diclofen pot 50mg tab mylan and diclofenac pot 50mg? I've been taking the latter of these for years however this time the script showed up as the diclofen pot 50mg mylan. Should I be concerned? Should I return it to the pharmacy? ## Hi Ron, Diclofen is actually reported to be a common misspelling or abbreviation of Diclofenac. So there shouldn't be any differences in the "active ingredients". However it is important to note that different brands/manufacturers often use a different set of "inactive" ingredients (known as binders/fillers). These are known to have an impact on the drug's overall bioavailability. Other than that, they appear to be the exact same medication and dosage. I hope this helps!

What is the pain killing strength of a norco M 355 ## Hi Debbie, Just to clarify a couple of things - M 355 is actually reported to be a 100mg Diclofenac sodium extended-release tablet, made by Mylan Pharmaceuticals. It has no apparent relation to Norco other than the fact that it can also be used for pain relief; just not nearly as strong in my opinion. In terms of "pain killing strength", drug monographs describe Diclofenac as being used to relieve mild to moderate pain, whereas Norco is described as being used to relieve moderate to severe pain. I hope this helps!
