What Experts Say

Diclofenac blocks cyclooxygenase enzymes, reducing prostaglandins that cause pain, swelling and fever at the site of injury or irritation. This mechanism explains why it works well for everyday pain such as headaches, muscle strain and minor joint discomfort.

Pharmacists and doctors generally recommend taking it with food to reduce stomach irritation, and using the lowest effective dose for the shortest time needed, since NSAIDs carry a risk of stomach and kidney side effects with frequent or prolonged use.

People with a history of stomach ulcers, heart disease or kidney problems are usually advised to avoid regular NSAID use without medical guidance, and should check with a pharmacist before buying it without a prescription. Occasional short term use for common aches is generally considered safe for most healthy adults when label directions are followed, but pain lasting more than a few days should always be reviewed by a doctor rather than treated indefinitely with over the counter tablets.
