Common Questions and Answers about Diclofenac rash

Avatar f tn Question. I have started taking Diclofenac 75mg x's 2 a day to try and see if a non narcotic medication may give me some relief long term with my rib pain. I have taken it for 2 weeks and at first I didn't think it was helping at all. Now I think 1 of 2 things either A) it's starting to build up in my system and is helping better or B) My ribs just happen to feel a bit better lately.
Avatar n tn i have taken diclofenac for over 20 years with no side effects i have had to come off the tablets 75mg x twice day 4 days ago as I am showing some drying of kidneys from another mediation to ensure it is that one i have come off anything whih might affect me.
653169 tn?1303446369 Does anyone have any experience with diclofenac? If so, does it work better than over the counter antiinflammatory drugs and does upset the stomach much?
Avatar f tn Is anyone on Diclofenac? I am on it for an orthopedic condition and have been on it almost 4 weeks. It works, but am unsure how long I will be on it. As short a time as possible, I hope,...but, I was wondering....for those with arthritis (which it usually prescribed for,,).....are you on it daily? As an ongoing medication? I hope to go off it to avoid risks with prolonged usage,but up to now...it has not caused me any problems.
Avatar m tn but no real answers so I added a picture which I took the next day and will try and explain my version I Have been married for 10 years and we have 3 kids this problem appeared after our 3rd child ,as soon as we have sex this rash appears and my wife says she also feels "bloated " inside her vagina .It does not happen every time it comes and goes sometimes staying away for a month or 2 then suddenly appears again .
Avatar m tn I think I need the strong stuff like diclofenac and B12 and b6. There is a pills called OKA B that I use to take when having muscle pain and it took pains away. But I've heard that diclofenac is not good to take during tx. Has anyone taken diclofenac during tx or is it too bad for the liver.
Avatar m tn Hi, welcome to the forum, Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including aspirin, diclofenac and ibuprofen, are associated with an allergic adverse effects, ranging from mild rash to life-threatening allergic reactions. In such cases it becomes difficult to select appropriate pain killer. The next we usually recommend is paracetamol (she is also allergic to this drug). The reason for such allergy is cross reactivity which is seen in this class of drugs.
1204528 tn?1588786333 I checked interactions with carbamazepine + diclofenac epolamine topical/diclofenac ophtalmic/diclofenac potassium/diclofenac sodium/diclofenac topical.
Avatar m tn Before this on October 2010, I was diagnosed with depression and was prescribed fluvoxamine and risperidone but I have stopped since December last year (still under session though). In January 2011 I suddenly had a 4 day fever and when it finally goes away, I had rash all over my body that is red but does not itch much. I went to see a dermatologist and they are not quite sure what I had but they prescribed me with calamine lotion and cetrizine dihydrochloride.
Avatar f tn I went to the beach today, and as soon as I got out of the ocean, I noticed a multitude of raised red welts (ranging from the size of a pen-tip to the size of a tic-tac) scattered about on my thighs and calves. They appeared nowhere else on my body. It is not razor stubble (I do not need to shave my legs above my knees, so I never have), and this "rash" (?
Avatar n tn Granuloma annulare is a chronic disease consisting of a rash with reddish bumps arranged in a circle or ring. Usually it is asymptomatic but due to cosmetic disfigurement topical or oral steroids may be needed. Please discuss this with your dermatologist. I hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted in case you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
Avatar f tn now I have a bad rash on my chest, stomach and back.. I figure it came from the sinus medicine.. also have diabetes. Tryin to see what I should take...
Avatar f tn A couple weeks ago I noticed a rash on my lower legs. It looked like a million freckles with a faint red background from my knee to my ankle and also a heavier patch on the outside of my right ankle. It didn't hurt, wasn't itchy, raised or anything. I only know I had it because I saw it. By the time I got to the Dr it was almost gone however I do still have a bit left. She had no idea what it was and did some blood work for my liver and also white count.

1840891 tn?1431547793 //www.drugs.com/mtm/diclofenac-topical.html "Some NSAIDs, particularly sulindac (Clinoril) and diclofenac, showed higher rates of hepatic injury and transaminase elevation more than three times the upper limit of normal compared with placebo. However, even in large systematic reviews, clinically significant outcomes, such as hospitalization or death, were rare. NSAIDs do carry some risk in persons with impaired hepatic function.
Avatar f tn I have a "rash" on both outer cheeks. At it's worst it crusts over, then crust/scab falls off, leaving slightly reddened skin. Cycle takes 4-6 weeks from bad to good, then repeats. Dermatologist did biopsy in 2008. Said probably not Lupus, chance of Actinic Keratosis, probably Rosacea combined with Seb Derm. Tried OTC cortisone ointment, Metrogel, Sulfur-Sulfacetamide, Protopic with little results. Desonide gave temporary relief, not long term.
473384 tn?1210206242 like that was going to last!). 6 months ago I started taking diclofenac (an NSAID) and apparantly it works REALLY WELL for pain b/c I am supposed to stop taking it 7-10 days before surgery b/c of bleeding issues. I stopped it last week and OMG I can't believe how bad my pain became. I could not even walk, could not get comfortable in bed to sleep, etc etc etc.
Avatar n tn And please remember, that if you see multiple doctors, you should let them know all medications you take including anything over the counter such as aspirin. Here is information regarding diclofenac gel. https://www.drugs.com/voltaren-gel.html. Diclofenac is voltaren and the gel contains the Nsaid. This information states clearly that aspirin should not be used at the same time. Normally, blood thinners are also not used with Nsaids.
Avatar m tn This is a varicocele surgery on his testicles. He had a high fever a few hours ago. I injected diclofenac 75mg in his muscle due to his request. After that, I read about something like "Do not take diclofenac at least 7 days before a surgery". This is about the risk of bleeding, right? So, if his surgeon say that it will be ok, can we trust him? I'm freaking out. Please tell me what should I do. Thanks a lot.
Avatar m tn In any case, Id like to ask if the symptoms are indicative of ARS. So far no rash, but the combination of canker sores, then a few days later the sore throat, then fever (with fatigue and headache). Fever seems to have stopped, but malaise and sore throat are around. Been taking diclofenac for it. Developed some coughing. Any insight?
880900 tn?1467270141 Hi folks! Have any of you used Diclofenac or Voltarin Gel for relief from general pain on thighs, etc.(and other large areas ... LOL? What was your experience? Did it actually relieve any of your pain? I've used the tablet form, but it made me sick to my stomach. Is this likely to do the same? Thanks for your help.
