Andrew’s Counselling Tips:
- Voltaren Rapid 25mg is a product which can be used as a short-term anti-inflammatory for a variety of conditions including: muscles aches & pain, arthritis, backache, headache and period pain
- It is only recommended for short-term use of no longer than a few days unless recommended by a doctor and the maximum daily dose should not be exceeded
- Voltaren tablets need to be taken with food (preferably a main meal) otherwise it may cause stomach upset
- It should NOT be taken within the first 48 hours after an injury as it may delay the body’s natural healing process, it’s better to RICE the injury – Rest, Ice, Compress and Elevate
- NOT to be taken in pregnancy or breastfeeding, unless recommended by a doctor
- NOT to be taken if asthmatic, or with a history of stomach ulcers
