Fast-Acting Pain Relief with Cataflam 75mg
Cataflam 75mg suppositories contain diclofenac potassium, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) specifically formulated for rapid absorption. Unlike many other rectal treatments, the potassium salt in Cataflam is designed to reach the bloodstream quickly, providing effective relief for acute painful conditions.
These suppositories (often referred to as "inserts" in Nigeria) are an ideal alternative when oral medication is not possible, such as during nausea, vomiting, or post-surgical recovery.
Key Indications
Cataflam 75mg is typically used for the short-term treatment of:
- Acute pain and inflammation: Following traumatic injury or orthopedic surgery.
- Migraine attacks: Provides rapid relief for severe headaches.
- Painful inflammatory conditions: Including dental surgery or primary dysmenorrhea.
How it Works
The active ingredient, diclofenac potassium, works by blocking the production of prostaglandins—chemicals in the body that signal pain and cause inflammation. By delivering the medication rectally, it bypasses the digestive system, which can be beneficial for patients with sensitive stomachs or those needing immediate results.
