seconds followed by additional injections up to the maximum daily dosage; this may be repeated after 4 to 6 hours if necessary although the
total dose should not exceed the maximum daily dose of 150 mg. The maximum period recommended for parenteral use is 2 days.
Diclofenac sodium is also used intramuscularly in renal colic in a dose of 75 mg repeated once after 30 minutes if necessary.
For dosage details in children, see Refer to .
Diclofenac sodium is used as a 0.1% ophthalmic solution in various situations:
for the prevention of intra-operative miosis during cataract surgery, it is instilled in the appropriate eye 4 times during the 2 hours before
surgery
for the treatment of postoperative inflammation after cataract surgery, it is instilled 4 times daily for up to 28 days starting 24 hours after
surgery
for the control of post-photorefractive keratectomy pain, it is instilled twice in the hour before surgery, then one drop twice at 5-minute
intervals immediately after the procedure, and then every 2 to 5 hours while awake for up to 24 hours
for pain control after accidental trauma, one drop is instilled 4 times daily for up to 2 days
in the treatment of inflammation and discomfort after strabismus surgery, one drop is instilled 4 times daily for the first week; this is reduced
to 3 times daily in the second week, twice daily in the third week, and as required for the fourth week
for the control of inflammation after argon laser trabeculoplasty, one drop is instilled 4 times during the 2 hours before the procedure
followed by one drop 4 times daily for up to 7 days after the procedure
for the treatment of pain and discomfort after radial keratotomy, one drop is instilled before surgery followed by one drop immediately after
surgery and then one drop 4 times daily for up to 2 days
to relieve symptoms of seasonal allergic conjunctivitis, one drop is instilled 4 times daily as necessary
Diclofenac diethylamine is used topicallyas a gel containing the equivalent of 1% of diclofenac sodium for the local symptomatic relief of pain
and inflammation; it is applied to the affected site 3 or 4 times daily; treatment should be reviewed after 14 days or after 28 days if used for
osteoarthritis. A topical spray containing diclofenac sodium 4% is also available; 4 or 5 sprays (32 or 40 mg of diclofenac sodium) may be
applied 3 times daily, up to a maximum of 15 sprays (120 mg of diclofenac sodium) daily; treatment should be reviewed after 7 or 8 days. A
topical solution of diclofenac sodium 1.6% is available for the treatment of osteoarthritis in superficial joints such as the wrist or knee; it is
applied in small aliquots to achieve a total of 20 or 40 drops, depending on the size of the joint, and repeated four times daily. Diclofenac is
also used in the management of actinic keratoses; it is applied twice daily as diclofenac sodium gel 3% for 60 to 90 days but the optimum
therapeutic effect may not be seen until 30 days after the end of treatment. Diclofenac epolamine is also used topically as a plaster
containing the equivalent of 1% of diclofenac sodium for local symptomatic pain relief in ankle sprain and epicondylitis. In the treatment of
ankle sprain, 1 plaster is applied once daily for a maximum of 3 days and for epicondylitis, 1 plaster is applied twice daily for a maximum of
14 days.
Diclofenac is available as a combination preparation with misoprostol (Refer to) for patients at risk of NSAID-induced peptic ulceration.

Administration
In Children
In children aged 1 to 12 years the licensed UKoral or rectal dose of diclofenac sodium for juvenile idiopathic arthritis is 1 to 3 mg/kg daily in
divided doses. In children aged 6 to 12 years diclofenac sodium may also be given rectally for the treatment of acute postoperative pain,
either alone or as an adjunct to opiate therapy; a usual dose is 1 to 2 mg/kg daily in divided doses for a maximum of 4 days. The parenteral
route is not licensed for use in children although it has been used (see below).
The BNFC suggests slightly different doses of diclofenac sodium: in the management of rheumatic disease, including juvenile idiopathic
arthritis, in children from 6 months to 17 years of age, it recommends an oral dose of 3 to 5 mg/kg daily, in 2 or 3 divided doses. For relief of
mild to moderate pain and inflammation in, for example, soft-tissue disorders, the recommended oral or rectal dose in children from 6
months to 17 years of age is 0.3 to 1 mg/kg (maximum 50 mg) given three times daily; children 2 to 17 years of age may be given a similar
dose once or twice daily by intravenous infusionor deep intramuscular (gluteal) injection for up to 2 days for postoperative pain. Rectal doses
may also be given for postoperative pain to children from 6 months to 17 years of age, according to body-weight, for a maximum of 4 days:
those weighing 8 to 11 kg may be given 12.5 mg twice daily and heavier children 1 mg/kg three times daily.
Regardless of route or indication, a maximum daily dose of 150 mg should not be exceeded.
Diclofenac potassium has also been used in children aged over 14 years for the treatment of rheumatic disease, musculoskeletal disorders,
and postoperative pain; it is given in an oral dose of 75 to 100 mg daily in 2 or 3 divided doses.

Actinic keratoses
Diclofenac sodium 3% in hyaluronic acid gel is used1-3 in the treatment of actinic keratoses (see Basal Cell and Squamous Cell Carcinoma,
Refer to ), and a meta-analysis4 found it to be of benefit, despite previous concerns that the preparation may not be significantly more
effective than hyaluronic acid gel alone.5An open-label comparison involving 30 patients with multiple actinic keratoses suggested that 90
days of treatment with diclofenac sodium 3% gel (to lesions on one side of the face and scalp) was better tolerated, but slightly less effective,
than 28 days of treatment with fluorouracil 5% cream (to lesions on the other side).6

Precautions
As for NSAIDs in general, Refer to .
Systemic diclofenac is contra-indicated in patients with moderate to severe heart failure (NYHA class II to IV), ischaemic heart disease,
peripheral arterial disease, or cerebrovascular disease. It should be used with caution in patients with significant risk factors for
cardiovascular events such as hypertension, hyperlipidaemia, diabetes mellitus, and smoking. Systemic diclofenac is also contra-indicated in
patients with severe hepatic or renal impairment.
In addition, use of intravenous diclofenac is contra-indicated in patients with moderate or severe renal impairment, hypovolaemia, or
dehydration; it should also not be given intravenously to patients with a history of haemorrhagic diathesis, cerebrovascular bleeding
(including suspected), or asthma nor in patients undergoing surgery with a high risk of haemorrhage.
Ophthalmic preparations containing diclofenac should not be used by patients who wear soft contact lenses.

Breast feeding
Diclofenac is distributed into breast milk although the BNF considers the amount to be too small to be harmful to breast-fed infants.

Porphyria
The Drug Database for Acute Porphyria, compiled by the Norwegian Porphyria Centre (NAPOS) and the Porphyria Centre Sweden, classifies
diclofenac as probably porphyrinogenic; it should be prescribed only for compelling reasons and precautions should be considered in all
patients.1

Effects on the eyes
A patient who had been taking oral diclofenac for several years and had increasingly complained of dry, gritty eyes noticed that eye irritation
disappeared within 3 days when diclofenac had to be stopped because of gastrointestinal effects.1
Ocular diclofenac and related drugs have been implicated in reports of corneal toxicity. Ulceration of the conjunctiva or cornea, corneal or
scleral melts, and perforations have been reported in patients using diclofenac eye drops, particularly after cataract surgery.2-5Keratitis and
perforations were also reported with ketorolac eye drops,4 although less frequently. For mention of corneal melting with bromfenac, see

Effects on the gastrointestinal tract
The most frequent adverse effects reported in patients given diclofenac systemically are gastrointestinal in nature. Typical reactions include
epigastric pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhoea. Rarely peptic ulcer and gastrointestinal bleeding have occurred. Diclofenac has also been
implicated as the causative agent in colonic ulceration,1 small bowel perforation,2 and pseudomembranous colitis.3Diclofenac suppositories
may cause local reactions such as itching, burning, or exacerbation of haemorrhoids.

Effects on the liver
Elevations of serum aminotransferase activity and clinical hepatitis,1-8 including fatal fulminant hepatitis2,5 have occurred in patients taking
diclofenac. There has also been a case report of hepatorenal damage attributed to diclofenac.9 Analysis10 of 180 of the cases of diclofenac-
associated hepatic injury received by the FDA between November 1988 and June 1991 suggested an increased risk of hepatotoxicity in female
patients and those taking diclofenac for osteoarthritis. Hepatotoxicity had been detected within 6 months of starting diclofenac in 85% of the
patients. The biochemical pattern of injury was hepatocellular or mixed hepatocellular in 66% of patients and cholestatic injury was found in
8% of patients. Signs of hypersensitivity were uncommon and it was considered that the mechanism of hepatic injury was likely to be a
metabolic idiosyncratic reaction rather than due to intrinsic toxicity of diclofenac.

Pharmacokinetics
Diclofenac is rapidly absorbed when given as an oral solution, sugar-coated tablets, rectal suppository, or by intramuscular injection. It is
absorbed more slowly when given as enteric-coated tablets, especially when this dosage form is given with food. Although diclofenac given
orally is almost completely absorbed, it is subject to first-pass metabolism so that about 50% of the drug reaches the systemic circulation in
the unchanged form. Diclofenac is also absorbed percutaneously. At therapeutic concentrations it is more than 99% bound to plasma
proteins. Diclofenac penetrates synovial fluid where concentrations may persist even when plasma concentrations fall; small amounts are
distributed into breast milk. The terminal plasma half-life is about 1 to 2 hours. Diclofenac is metabolised to 4′- hydroxydiclofenac , 5-
hydroxydiclofenac, 3′-hydroxydiclofenac, and 4′,5-dihydroxydiclofenac. It is then excreted in the form of glucuronide and sulfate conjugates,
mainly in the urine (about 60%) but also in the bile (about 35%); less than 1% is excreted as unchanged diclofenac.
