What Experts Say

Diclofenac blocks enzymes that produce pain and inflammation signals in the body, giving relief within a short time.

The potassium salt form is absorbed faster than some other diclofenac tablets, so it is often chosen for quick pain relief rather than long term daily use.

Taking it with food lowers the chance of stomach upset, and it should be used at the lowest effective dose for the shortest time needed.
