Ziclofen SR

Diclofenac Extended-Release Tablets (Ziclofen SR)

Diclofenac Extended-Release Tablets, commonly known as Ziclofen SR, are a type of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to treat mild to moderate pain. This medication is particularly effective in relieving symptoms of arthritis, such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, by reducing inflammation, swelling, and stiffness in the joints.

Ziclofen SR is also used to treat ankylosing spondylitis, a type of arthritis that primarily affects the spine. Additionally, it can help alleviate menstrual cramps and other painful conditions.

The extended-release formulation ensures that the medication is released slowly over a longer period, providing sustained relief from pain and inflammation. This makes it a convenient option for managing chronic conditions.

For acute pain, adults can take 50 to 75 milligrams of Ziclofen SR two to three times a day, as directed by their healthcare provider. For osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, the recommended dosage is 50 to 75 milligrams two to three times a day, or 75 milligrams twice a day. For ankylosing spondylitis, the typical dosage is 25 milligrams four times a day, with an additional dose at bedtime if needed.

It is essential to follow the prescribed dosage and consult with your healthcare provider to determine the best treatment plan for your specific condition. Diclofenac Extended-Release Tablets are available by prescription only and should be used under medical supervision to ensure safe and effective treatment.
