Voltaren Retard 100Mg 10Tab

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 menstrual pain. It effectively reduces pain and inflammation.

Voltaren contains the active ingredient Diclofenac Sodium, which works by inhibiting certain enzymes in the body known as cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes.
