What Experts Say

Fen-S Tablet contains diclofenac sodium, an NSAID that reduces the body's production of prostaglandins. These chemicals cause pain, redness and swelling, so lowering them eases discomfort. Doctors prefer short courses because long term use raises the chance of stomach and heart risks. It is one of the most widely used NSAIDs, and its benefits and risks are well documented by decades of use.

It is commonly used for arthritis, back pain, sprains and period cramps. It gives relief from symptoms but does not repair the underlying joint or tissue problem. Pairing it with rest, gentle stretching or heat therapy can improve results.

Stomach irritation is the most common concern, so taking it with food helps. People with ulcers, heart, kidney or liver problems, or aspirin sensitive asthma, need a doctor's approval before using it. Older adults are more prone to side effects and need careful dosing.
