Voltaren Retard 100Mg 30Tab

Voltaren Retard is a medication belonging to the class of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It is primarily used to relieve pain and inflammation resulting from conditions such as arthritis, back pain, and headaches. It effectively reduces pain and inflammation, helping patients regain their daily activities.

Voltaren contains the active ingredient Diclofenac Sodium, which works by inhibiting certain enzymes known as cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes. These enzymes are responsible for producing chemicals that cause inflammation and pain in the body. By reducing these substances, Voltaren helps alleviate symptoms and improve the quality of life for patients suffering from painful conditions.
