Clofenac 50mg Tablet
Clofenac 50mg is a powerful non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) designed to provide effective relief from pain and inflammation. Formulated with 50mg of Diclofenac Sodium, it is widely used in Nigeria to manage conditions affecting the joints, muscles, and bones.
What is Clofenac 50 used for?
Clofenac 50 is commonly used for the following conditions:

Arthritis Relief: Effective for managing symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and acute gout.
Muscle and Joint Pain: Provides relief from back pain, sprains, and sports injuries.
Period Pain: Helps reduce the intensity of menstrual cramps (primary dysmenorrhea).
Post-Surgical Pain: Often prescribed to manage inflammation and pain following dental or minor surgical procedures.

How it Works
These are enteric-coated tablets, meaning they are designed to pass through the stomach and dissolve in the small intestine. This helps to minimize stomach irritation, a common side effect of NSAID medications. The active ingredient, Diclofenac Sodium, works by blocking the production of chemicals in the body that cause pain and swelling.
Dosage and Administration
For adults, the standard dosage is typically one tablet (50mg) taken two to three times daily. It is best to take Clofenac 50 with or after a meal to further protect your stomach. Always follow the specific instructions from your doctor or Meddylab pharmacist.
Important Precautions

Avoid if: You have an active stomach ulcer or severe heart, liver, or kidney disease.
Pregnancy: It is generally not recommended, especially during the third trimester.
Side Effects: Some users may experience mild nausea or dizziness. If you notice severe abdominal pain, seek medical attention immediately.
