Product Benefits

The primary active ingredient in Clofenac 25 mg Suppository is Diclofenac Sodium, a potent Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID). Its benefits are derived from its mechanism of action, which involves inhibiting the biosynthesis of prostaglandins, chemicals that play a major role in causing inflammation, pain, and fever.

1. Potent Pain Relief (Analgesic Action): Effectively relieves acute and chronic pain associated with a wide range of conditions.

2. Reduces Inflammation (Anti-Inflammatory Action): Significant reduction in swelling, tenderness, and stiffness caused by inflammatory processes.

3. Fever Reduction (Antipyretic Action): Helps to lower high body temperature, particularly in cases of acute upper respiratory tract inflammation when other antipyretics are not feasible.

4. Treatment for Rheumatic Conditions: Indicated for inflammatory and degenerative forms of rheumatism, including:

   • Rheumatoid Arthritis

   • Osteoarthritis

   • Ankylosing Spondylitis

   • Acute Gout

5. Relief from Musculoskeletal Trauma and Surgery: Useful for painful conditions resulting from:

   • Sprains, Strains, and Bruises

   • Dislocations and Fractures

   • Post-operative and post-traumatic pain and swelling (e.g., after orthopedic or minor surgery).

6. Gynecological Pain Management: Provides symptomatic relief for conditions like:

   • Primary Dysmenorrhoea (menstrual pain)

   • Pain and inflammation associated with adnexitis and other gynecological inflammation.

7. Management of Colic Pain: Used for the treatment of pain in patients with renal (kidney) and biliary colic.

8. Rapid Onset of Action (Rectal Route): Suppositories can offer a faster onset of action compared to oral tablets and are often used when oral administration is not possible (e.g., due to nausea or vomiting, or for nocturnal pain suppression).

9. Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis: The 25 mg strength can be used in children (typically over 1-6 years, depending on body weight and local guidelines) for the treatment of juvenile chronic arthritis under a doctor's guidance.
