Uses
This form of diclofenac is used for the short-term treatment of pain in adults. It is usually used before or after medical procedures or after surgery. Reducing pain helps you recover more comfortably so that you can return to your normal daily activities. Diclofenac is known as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by blocking your body's production of certain natural substances that cause inflammation. This effect helps to decrease swelling, pain, or fever.
Side Effects

• Pain at the injection site or dizziness may occur. If either of these effects lasts or gets worse, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.
• Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.
• This medication may raise your blood pressure. Check your blood pressure regularly and tell your doctor if the results are high.
