What Experts Say

Diclofenac blocks the enzymes that produce prostaglandins, the chemicals that cause pain and swelling in injured or inflamed tissue.

The potassium salt dissolves quickly, so Sofac-P is often chosen when faster pain relief is needed rather than long acting control.

It should not be used in the first three months of pregnancy or in children under fourteen, and people with stomach, liver, or kidney problems need medical guidance first.
