Product Benefits

The primary benefits of Clofenac 12.5 mg Suppository (Diclofenac Sodium) stem from its potent anti-inflammatory, analgesic (pain-relieving), and antipyretic (fever-reducing) properties.

• Effective Pain Relief: It is used to relieve mild to moderate pain from a wide variety of causes, including injuries, post-operative recovery, and various inflammatory conditions.

• Reduces Inflammation and Swelling: It is highly effective in treating inflammatory conditions by inhibiting the biosynthesis of prostaglandins, which are key mediators of inflammation.

• Fever Reduction (Antipyretic Action): It can be used to bring down high fever, especially in cases of acute upper respiratory tract inflammation when other fever reducers may be ineffective or cannot be administered orally.

• Treatment for Rheumatic Conditions: It provides relief from pain, swelling, and stiffness associated with conditions like:

  • Rheumatoid Arthritis

  • Osteoarthritis

  • Ankylosing Spondylitis

  • Acute Gout

  • Peri-articular rheumatic disorders (e.g., tendinitis, bursitis).

• Musculoskeletal and Traumatic Relief: It is indicated for pain and swelling following:

  • Sprains, strains, and bruises

  • Dislocations and fractures

  • Orthopaedic, dental, and other minor surgery.

• Gynecological/Obstetric Uses: It can be used to manage pain in conditions like primary dysmenorrhoea (menstrual pain), post-birth pain, episiotomy, and various forms of pelvic inflammation.

• Alternative Route of Administration: As a suppository, it provides an effective systemic alternative for pain and fever management when a patient is unable to take oral medication (e.g., due to vomiting or post-surgery restrictions).

• Pediatric Dosing: The 12.5 mg strength is suitable for controlled dosing in children aged 1 year and older for conditions like juvenile rheumatoid arthritis or for emergent fever reduction.
