Reactin 100mg Tablet – Diclofenac 100mg

Reactin 100mg Tablet contains diclofenac 100mg, an NSAID with analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. It may be prescribed for inflammatory and painful conditions such as arthritis and other musculoskeletal disorders.

Diclofenac inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, reducing prostaglandin production. This helps decrease pain, inflammation, and associated swelling.

The 100mg strength may be supplied as a modified-release or extended-release formulation depending on the manufacturer. The exact formulation should therefore be verified from the product packaging before publishing administration or release-specific instructions.

Diclofenac should generally be used at the lowest effective dose for the shortest appropriate duration. Prolonged or inappropriate NSAID use can increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding, cardiovascular complications, kidney injury, and other adverse effects.

Product Information

Uses

Diclofenac may be prescribed for pain and inflammation associated with:

• Osteoarthritis
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Musculoskeletal disorders
• Joint pain and inflammation
• Sprains and strains
• Acute inflammatory conditions
• Other conditions where NSAID therapy is considered appropriate

The exact approved indications depend on the locally approved product information.

How It Works

Diclofenac inhibits COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, which reduces the synthesis of prostaglandins. Prostaglandins contribute to pain and inflammation, so reducing their production helps relieve these symptoms.

Dosage & Administration

The appropriate dose depends on the patient’s condition, medical history, age, other medicines, and the specific diclofenac formulation.

Take Reactin 100mg exactly as prescribed. Do not increase the dose or treatment duration without medical advice.

If the product is a modified-release or extended-release tablet, it should generally be swallowed whole rather than crushed or chewed, unless the manufacturer’s instructions state otherwise.
