What Experts Say

Diclofenac potassium blocks COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, reducing the chemicals in the body that cause pain, swelling, and fever.

The potassium salt dissolves faster than standard diclofenac sodium, so it tends to act quicker for short term pain relief.

It is best taken with food, and should not be used for more than a few days without medical advice, since NSAIDs carry stomach, kidney, and heart risks.
