Voltaren Tablets

Effective relief from pain and inflammation for various conditions.

What are Voltaren Tablets?

Voltaren Tablets contain diclofenac sodium, a powerful nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). They are widely used to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility in conditions like arthritis, muscle injuries, and menstrual cramps.

How Voltaren Works

Voltaren works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation. By reducing these chemicals, Voltaren provides relief from swelling, stiffness, and discomfort, helping you regain mobility and comfort.
