Product Overview
This formulation contains Diclofenac Potassium, the potassium salt of diclofenac, engineered for enhanced solubility and faster absorption compared to the sodium salt.
The “Rapid Relief” Specialist:
- Potassium vs. Sodium (Speed): Unlike Diclofenac Sodium (which is often enteric-coated to release in the intestine), Diclofenac Potassium dissolves rapidly in the acidic environment of the stomach. This results in peak plasma concentrations (Tmax) in as little as 45 minutes, compared to 2–3 hours for the sodium salt.
- Mechanism: It is a potent non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with pronounced analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic properties. It works by inhibiting the Cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, blocking the production of prostaglandins which cause pain and inflammation.
- Short-Term Focus: Because of its rapid uptake and elimination, it is ideal for treating acute, sharp pain rather than chronic maintenance.

Marketed and Distributed by Healthy Inc from WHO-GMP & ISO 9001:2015 certified units.
- Solubility Engineering: Diclofenac Potassium acts fast because it is water-soluble. We optimize the granulation process to ensure rapid disintegration (< 10 minutes), ensuring the drug is available for absorption immediately upon reaching the stomach.
- Taste Masking: The molecule is inherently bitter and astringent. Our sugar-coating process involves multiple layers of syrup and polishing wax to ensure the tablet is palatable and easy to swallow.
Therapeutic Indications (Human Use)
Indicated for the short-term treatment of acute painful and inflammatory conditions:
- Dental Pain: Post-extraction pain and toothaches.
- Primary Dysmenorrhea: Severe menstrual cramps.
- Migraine Attacks: Relief of headache pain (often combined with anti-emetics).
- Post-Traumatic Pain: Sprains, strains, and sports injuries.
- ENT Infections: As an adjuvant to reduce severe pain and inflammation in throat infections.
Dosage & Administration
Recommended Dosage (Strictly as per Physician):
- Route: Oral.
- Adults: 50 mg taken 2 or 3 times daily.
- Maximum Dose: 150 mg daily.
- Administration:
- Swallow whole with liquid; do not crush or chew.
- Best taken before meals for fastest absorption (unlike other NSAIDs, food delays the peak effect of Potassium salt). However, if gastric upset occurs, take with food.
Safety Warnings:
- Gastrointestinal Risk: Can cause ulcers and bleeding, though the risk is generally lower than with chronic use of the sodium salt due to shorter treatment duration.
- Cardiovascular Risk: NSAIDs increase the risk of heart attack and stroke. Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration.
- Renal Impairment: Avoid in patients with advanced kidney disease.
- Allergy: Contraindicated in patients with aspirin-induced asthma (“Samter’s Triad”).
