What Experts Say

Diclofenac potassium works by blocking enzymes called cyclooxygenase, or COX, that the body uses to produce prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are chemicals that cause pain, swelling, and fever at the site of an injury or inflammation. By lowering their production, this medicine eases pain and reduces swelling fairly quickly after a dose.

Doctors commonly prescribe it for short courses rather than continuous long-term use, since NSAIDs carry stomach and kidney risks with prolonged intake. It is often paired with a stomach-protecting medicine for patients who need it for more than a few days, and dosing is kept as low and as short as the pain allows.

Many people reach for an NSAID capsule at the first sign of body ache or a headache without checking how it might affect an empty stomach or an existing kidney condition. Taking it after a meal and avoiding it alongside other painkillers from the same drug class helps prevent stomach irritation. Anyone with high blood pressure, heart disease, or ulcers should check with a doctor before regular use.
