What is Cataflam
DiclofenacThe Generic name of this drug
Treatment SummaryDiclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is used to reduce pain and inflammation. It works by blocking enzymes in the body that cause inflammation and pain. Diclofenac is often used as the first line of treatment for acute and chronic pain from a variety of sources. It is usually prescribed in combination with another drug, misoprostol, to prevent stomach ulcers caused by its use. Diclofenac was first approved by the FDA in 1988 and is sold under the brand name Voltaren.

Effectiveness
How Cataflam Affects PatientsDiclofenac is used to reduce inflammation, pain, and fever. However, taking it can increase the risk of developing an ulcer in the stomach, since it reduces the amount of protective mucus produced.
How Cataflam works in the bodyDiclofenac works by blocking enzymes that produce molecules called prostaglandins. Prostaglandins play a role in pain and inflammation. They make your body more sensitive to pain and reduce your immune response. Prostaglandins also widen your blood vessels, which can cause inflammation. By blocking these enzymes, the prostaglandins don't get made and inflammation can be reduced. In addition, diclofenac stops these molecules from triggering a fever.

10/10/2011 Cataflam quickly and effectively alleviated the pain I was experiencing from my broken tooth.
5Patient Review
3/4/2015 This really helped with my gum inflammation and tooth pain.
5Patient Review
8/30/2017 I was in a lot of pain while on vacation, but this medication turned things around fast. I saw results after just two doses and felt better within 24 hours.
5Patient Review
8/25/2012 I'm not sure how effective this medication is because I take tramadol for pain relief.
5Patient Review
6/10/20115Patient Review
6/3/2022 This is my go-to treatment when I'm feeling stressed or have had too much wine. I drink it dissolved in a large glass of water and I'm good as new the next day.
4.7Patient Review
9/15/2016 I have fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis. I've been taking Ubuntu for years, and it works well for what it is. They changed my medication to this one because of severe headaches and dizziness, but it does not work! I hurt all over and am so tired - it's awful!
4Patient Review
9/28/2013 I was prescribed this to help with my endometriosis symptoms. The first pill did provide some relief, but after taking the second pill just a few hours later I felt incredibly nauseous. Not sure if the pain relief is worth the stomach upset.
3.7Patient Review
10/27/2012 I've tried a lot of different medications for my chronic back and leg pain, and this one was just not effective at all.
3.3Patient Review
8/17/2011 The medication was prescribed to me for pain, but I only made it two days before having to stop. I developed intense stomach problems and weakness in my lower abdomen. After reading the side effects, I think this drug should be taken off the market. The negatives seem to outweigh any positives.
3.3Patient Review
5/4/2013 It would be helpful if there was a date on the article so readers know if the information is current. I stopped prescribing Cataflam because of the risk of heart attack.
3Patient Review
6/29/2012 Even after taking both the cataflam 50mg and ibuprofen, my toothache pain has not subsided. I'm going to have to tough it out until I can see a dentist for a root canal.
2.7Patient Review
4/28/2012 I've found this to be a little effective.
2.3Patient Review
7/27/2012 Cataflam has been a saving grace for me. They provide much-needed relief when my condition gets bad and I can't leave home without them. Overall, they've really improved the quality of my life.
