How It Works

Diclofenac belongs to the NSAID group. It works by reducing the production of prostaglandins, substances involved in pain, swelling and inflammation. By lowering prostaglandin production, diclofenac can reduce pain and inflammation and improve movement in affected joints and muscles.

How to Take

Take Voren 50mg exactly as directed by a doctor or pharmacist. The appropriate dose and treatment duration depend on the condition being treated.

The tablet should generally be swallowed with water. Avoid taking more than the recommended amount, and do not use it for longer than necessary without medical advice.

Do not combine Voren with other NSAID painkillers unless specifically advised by a healthcare professional.

Side Effects

Possible side effects include:

• Stomach pain or discomfort
• Indigestion
• Nausea

Serious side effects can include stomach or intestinal bleeding, ulcers, kidney problems, liver problems, severe allergic reactions and increased cardiovascular risk.

Seek medical attention if there is vomiting of blood, black or bloody stools, severe abdominal pain, difficulty breathing, facial swelling or other signs of a serious reaction.

Warnings and Precautions

Voren should be used carefully in people with a history of stomach ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding. Extra caution is also required in patients with kidney, liver or heart problems, high blood pressure or cardiovascular disease.

Long-term or high-dose NSAID use can increase the risk of gastrointestinal and cardiovascular complications. The lowest effective dose for the shortest appropriate duration is generally preferred.
