What is Diclofenac Sodium used for?

Voltaren Ophtha eye drops are used to relieve eye pain and reduce inflammation caused by eye surgery, injuries, or conditions like conjunctivitis. They may also be recommended for discomfort from contact lens use or minor eye irritations. This medication belongs to the NSAID class and works by blocking substances in the body that cause pain and swelling.

What does Diclofenac Sodium interact with?

Voltaren Ophtha is for ocular use only and is not known to interact with other eye medications when used as directed. However, using multiple eye drops should be spaced by at least 5 minutes to allow proper absorption. Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications you use.
