Description

Diclomol – Strip of 10 Tablets

Diclomol is a combination medication that typically contains Diclofenac (a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug or NSAID) and Paracetamol (Acetaminophen), which is a common pain reliever and fever reducer.

Key Information:

  • Active Ingredients:
    • Diclofenac: An NSAID that reduces inflammation, pain, and fever.
    • Paracetamol (Acetaminophen): A pain reliever and fever reducer that works by blocking certain chemicals in the brain.
  • Strength: The common strength of Diclofenac is 50 mg, and Paracetamol is usually 325 mg per tablet. (Please check your specific pack for the exact dosages).
  • Quantity: Strip of 10 tablets.

Common Uses:

Diclomol is commonly prescribed for conditions that involve inflammation and pain. Its uses include:

  1. Pain Relief:
    • For mild to moderate pain, such as headache, toothache, back pain, or muscle pain.
    • It can also be used for post-surgical pain or pain following injuries.
  2. Anti-inflammatory:
    • It is often used to manage inflammation-related conditions like arthritis (including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis), musculoskeletal disorders, and gout.
  3. Fever Reduction:
    • Paracetamol (acetaminophen) works to lower fever, and it is often combined with Diclofenac for overall pain and inflammation control.

Mechanism of Action:

  • Diclofenac works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX-1 and COX-2), which are involved in the production of prostaglandins—chemicals that mediate inflammation, pain, and fever. By blocking these enzymes, Diclofenac reduces inflammation, pain, and fever.
  • Paracetamol works primarily in the brain by blocking the production of certain chemicals (prostaglandins) involved in pain and temperature regulation, thus helping to relieve pain and reduce fever.

Dosage:

  • Diclomol tablets are typically taken one tablet two to three times a day, depending on the severity of the condition and the doctor’s prescription. The exact dose and frequency should be determined by your healthcare provider.
  • It is usually taken with food to minimize gastrointestinal side effects (especially from Diclofenac).

Side Effects:

While Diclomol is generally well-tolerated, some potential side effects may include:

  • Gastrointestinal issues: such as upset stomach, nausea, or heartburn (more common with Diclofenac).
  • Dizziness or headache.
  • Rash or allergic reactions.
  • Liver toxicity (rare, but possible with long-term or high-dose use of Paracetamol).
  • Kidney problems (especially with prolonged use of Diclofenac in high doses).
  • Stomach ulcers or bleeding (especially with prolonged or high-dose use of NSAIDs like Diclofenac).

Serious Side Effects (Seek Immediate Medical Help):

  • Signs of a severe allergic reaction: Difficulty breathing, swelling of the face, lips, or tongue.
  • Severe stomach pain, vomiting blood, or black stools (indicating potential gastrointestinal bleeding).
  • Signs of liver problems: Yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine, or unusual tiredness.
  • Severe dizziness or lightheadedness.

Precautions:

  • Gastrointestinal issues: If you have a history of stomach ulcers, gastrointestinal bleeding, or other stomach issues, caution is needed with Diclofenac.
  • Liver or Kidney Disease: Both Paracetamol and Diclofenac can affect liver and kidney function. You should inform your doctor if you have any history of liver or kidney disease.
  • Heart Disease: NSAIDs like Diclofenac may increase the risk of heart problems, particularly with long-term use. This should be considered for people with cardiovascular conditions.
  • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: This medication is generally not recommended during pregnancy (especially in the third trimester) or while breastfeeding unless prescribed by a doctor.
  • Alcohol Consumption: Avoid alcohol while taking this medication, as it may increase the risk of liver damage, especially due to Paracetamol.

Interactions:

  • Blood Thinners: Diclofenac may interact with anticoagulants like warfarin, increasing the risk of bleeding.
  • Other NSAIDs: Do not take additional NSAIDs (like ibuprofen) while on Diclofenac, as this can increase the risk of gastrointestinal issues and kidney damage.
  • Antihypertensive Drugs: Diclofenac can reduce the effectiveness of certain blood pressure medications (like ACE inhibitors or diuretics).
