What Experts Say

Diclofenac is a well studied non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. It blocks COX enzymes, which lowers the chemicals that cause pain, swelling and fever. In Pakistan it is widely used in clinics and emergency rooms because it acts within about 15 to 30 minutes and does not depend on stomach absorption.

Doctors use the 75mg/3ml injection for a short course, usually one or two days, while pain is at its worst. The lowest effective dose for the shortest time is the standard advice. Patients with kidney stones, fractures, dental surgery or acute back spasm are common examples where a single injection can give quick and meaningful relief.

Regular NSAID use carries stomach bleeding, kidney and heart risks. These are higher in older adults, people with ulcers, kidney disease or heart disease, and in late pregnancy. Anyone who takes blood thinners, has heart failure, or had a stomach bleed should tell the provider first. Fluids and food do not change how the injection works.

How to use Eurofenac injection 75mg / 3ml?

• Eurofenac Injection is given only by a doctor or trained healthcare provider, usually as a deep muscle injection.
• The dose and number of days are set by the doctor based on the type and severity of pain.
• Treatment is kept as short as possible, and switching to tablets is common once pain settles.

Drug Interactions

• Other NSAIDs and aspirin: Taking them together raises the risk of stomach bleeding and kidney injury.
• Blood thinners such as warfarin: Bleeding risk goes up, so close monitoring is needed.
• ACE inhibitors, ARBs and diuretics: Can reduce their effect and strain the kidneys.
• Methotrexate and lithium: Diclofenac can raise their blood levels and cause toxicity.

Risks and warnings

• Stomach and gut: Can cause ulcers and bleeding. Tell the doctor about any past ulcer, black stools or stomach pain.
• Heart and blood pressure: May raise the risk of heart attack, stroke and high blood pressure, mainly with high doses or long use.
• Kidney and liver: Can affect kidney function and, rarely, the liver. Extra care is needed in kidney disease.
• Pregnancy: Not advised in the last three months of pregnancy and only if clearly needed earlier.
• Allergy: Avoid in anyone who reacted to diclofenac, aspirin or other NSAIDs, including asthma or rash.
