Cataflam/Voltaren Rapid 25
(EACH TABLET CONTAINS DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM 25mg)
 

Voltaren Rapid 25 (which used to be called Cataflam) is a powerful medicine for the relief of acute painful and inflammatory conditions. Each Voltaren Rapid 25 tablet contains 25mg of diclofenac potassium. Voltaren Rapid 25 is not available in many countries without a prescription. In New Zealand it can be purchased from a pharmacy in packets of 30 tablets.

We strongly recommend that Voltaren Rapid be taken directly after a meal. Never take Voltaren Rapid 25 on an empty stomach, as this may cause gastric discomfort. Onset of pain relief is usually within 15 to 30 minutes. If you suffer from a stomach ulcer DO NOT TAKE VOLTAREN RAPID 25.

Voltaren Rapid 25 is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (nsai). If you have ever had an allergic reaction or asthma attack after taking diclofenac, or any other anti-inflammatory medicine such as aspirin, do not take this product. Voltaren Rapid 25 is particularly effective against the following medical complaints:

  • Sprains and strains
  • Bruises
  • Neck pain
  • Back pain
  • Period pain
  • Migraine and headache
  • Post operative pain (e.g. dental or Mmnor surgery)


Cataflam is now marketed under the name Voltaren Rapid 25
New Name. New Packaging. Same Formulation.
