Always follow your doctor’s instructions. The recommended dosage varies depending on your specific condition and needs.
For most adults, applying one Voltaren patch twice daily is common. Apply to the affected area, ensuring the skin is clean and dry.
Don’t exceed the recommended dosage. Using more patches won’t necessarily provide quicker relief and could increase the risk of side effects.
Each patch provides a controlled release of diclofenac over 12 hours. Therefore, using more frequently isn’t beneficial and could be harmful.
If you experience any unexpected side effects like skin irritation, rash, or unusual symptoms, discontinue use and consult your doctor immediately.
Children should not use Voltaren patches without specific prescription and supervision from a healthcare professional. Dosage for children varies greatly.
Read the patient information leaflet carefully before use. This leaflet provides detailed information on proper application, potential side effects and precautions.
Consult a pharmacist or doctor if you have any questions about your Voltaren patch dosage or usage. They can provide personalized recommendations based on your health status and medical history.
