Overview

Voltaren 50mg Suppository contains Diclofenac Sodium 50mg (as diclofenac) and is presented as a suppository. It is supplied in a pack size of 10s.

It is classified as a non-prescription medicine, so no prescription is needed to order it. Under Malaysian rules for medicine information, this page carries product, safety and handling information only.

You can consult a doctor or pharmacist online on DoctorOnCall about this product before or after you order. Every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is delivered. Always read the label and the leaflet supplied with the pack.

Directions for Use

Wash your hands before and after use. If possible, empty your bowels before inserting the suppository. Remove the suppository from its wrapper and gently insert it, pointed end first, into the rectum using a finger, then remain lying down for a few minutes to help it dissolve and be retained. Use exactly as prescribed by your doctor and do not exceed the recommended frequency.

Dosage

The dose and duration of use will be determined by your doctor based on your condition, typically one suppository (50mg) inserted rectally once or twice daily, not exceeding the maximum daily dose your doctor has prescribed. Do not use for longer than advised without further medical review.

Shelf Life

Check the expiry date printed on the carton before use, and do not use the suppository after this date. Suppositories that have become too soft due to heat can be re-firmed by placing them in the refrigerator briefly before use, but should not be used if damaged or discoloured.

Storage Instructions

Store Voltaren 50mg Suppository below 25°C, or as directed on the packaging, away from direct heat and sunlight, and keep them in their original wrapping until use. Keep out of the reach and sight of children.

Relevant Information

Voltaren 50mg Suppository is a prescription-only NSAID that may be preferred over oral diclofenac when a person cannot swallow tablets comfortably or is experiencing nausea or vomiting, but it carries similar systemic risks to oral NSAIDs, including gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and kidney effects. Your doctor will assess your individual risk factors before prescribing and may recommend periodic monitoring for longer courses of treatment.
