De gebruikelijke dosering voor volwassenen is <strong>50&nbsp;mg three times daily with food<\/strong> (maximum 150&nbsp;mg\/day). Reactin is indicated for osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, acute gout, musculoskeletal injury, post-operative pain, dysmenorrhoea, and renal\/biliary colic. Diclofenac has higher cardiovascular risk than ibuprofen &mdash; use the lowest effective dose for the shortest reasonable time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"medsbase-trust-strip\" style=\"background:#f4f8fb;border:1px solid #d8e3eb;padding:12px 16px;margin:16px 0;border-radius:4px;font-size:14px;\">\n<strong>Wat u krijgt bij MedsBase:<\/strong> WHO-GMP gecertificeerde fabrikant \u00b7 Discrete verpakking \u00b7 Wereldwijde verzending \u00b7 1.400+ geverifieerde <a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/reviews\/\">klantbeoordelingen<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"medsbase-reship-line\" style=\"font-size:14px;color:#444;margin:8px 0 18px;\">\ud83d\udce6 Elke bestelling is gedekt door onze <a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/medsbase-re-shipment-assurance-policy\/\"><strong>Reshipment Assurance Policy<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 als uw pakket niet binnen 20 werkdagen arriveert, sturen wij het opnieuw.<\/p>\n<h3>Waarom bestellen bij MedsBase<\/h3>\n<p>Onze generieke medicijnen zijn afkomstig van WHO-GMP gecertificeerde fabrikanten en worden wereldwijd verzonden in discrete, eenvoudige verpakkingen \u2014 geen medicijnnaam op de buitenkant van het pakket.

Diclofenac is on the WHO Essential Medicines List and is the workhorse NSAID for strong anti-inflammatory effect &mdash; roughly twice as potent per milligram as ibuprofen.<\/p>\n<p>The 50&nbsp;mg tablet is the standard adult immediate-release dose for acute pain and chronic inflammatory arthritis. For simpler twice-daily dosing and smoother plasma levels, the sustained-release 100&nbsp;mg form (<strong>Reactin SR<\/strong>) is often preferred in long-term therapy.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Reactin Used For?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis<\/li>\n<li>Ankylosing spondylitis<\/li>\n<li>Acute gout &mdash; high-dose short course<\/li>\n<li>Post-operative pain &mdash; dental, orthopaedic, gynaecological<\/li>\n<li>Acute musculoskeletal injury &mdash; sprains, strains, soft-tissue injury<\/li>\n<li>Primary dysmenorrhoea (period pain)<\/li>\n<li>Renal and biliary colic &mdash; strong visceral pain relief<\/li>\n<li>Acute migraine (occasionally)<\/li>\n<li>Low back pain (short course)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Does Diclofenac Work?<\/h2>\n<p>Diclofenac is a non-selective NSAID. It blocks the cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) enzymes that convert arachidonic acid to prostaglandins &mdash; the molecules that drive pain, swelling, and fever at sites of tissue injury. Less prostaglandin means less pain and inflammation. Because COX-1-derived prostaglandins also protect the stomach lining and regulate kidney blood flow, the same mechanism that gives NSAIDs their benefit also accounts for their main side effects.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reactin Dosing<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Adults:<\/strong> 50&nbsp;mg two or three times daily with food<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maximum:<\/strong> 150&nbsp;mg\/day (three tablets)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Acute gout:<\/strong> 50&nbsp;mg three times daily for 2&ndash;3 days, tapering as inflammation settles<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ouderen:<\/strong> lowest effective dose, careful monitoring of blood pressure, kidney function, and GI tolerance<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nierfunctiestoornis:<\/strong> avoid if CrCl &lt; 30&nbsp;mL\/min<\/li>\n<li><strong>Leverfunctiestoornis:<\/strong> avoid in severe impairment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Swallow whole with water, with or after food.

Risk is highest in patients over 65, those with prior ulcer disease, and anyone also on low-dose aspirin, corticosteroids, SSRIs, or anticoagulants. Take Reactin <em>met voedsel<\/em>, at the <em>lowest effective dose for the shortest reasonable time<\/em>, and ask your doctor about a proton pump inhibitor (omeprazole, pantoprazole) for courses over 2&ndash;4 weeks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who Should Not Take Reactin?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Known hypersensitivity to diclofenac or any NSAID<\/li>\n<li>Active or recurrent peptic ulcer or GI bleed<\/li>\n<li>Aspirin- or NSAID-induced asthma, urticaria, or angioedema<\/li>\n<li>Severe heart failure (NYHA IV), established ischaemic heart disease, peripheral arterial disease, or cerebrovascular disease (use an alternative NSAID)<\/li>\n<li>Recent CABG surgery<\/li>\n<li>Ernstige leverfunctiestoornis<\/li>\n<li>Severe renal impairment (CrCl &lt; 30&nbsp;mL\/min)<\/li>\n<li>Third trimester of pregnancy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cardiovascular and renal safety<\/h3>\n<p>All non-aspirin NSAIDs carry some increase in heart attack, stroke, and heart-failure risk &mdash; particularly diclofenac and COX-2 selectives. They can also raise blood pressure and reduce kidney function, especially in elderly patients and in anyone combining an NSAID with an ACE inhibitor\/ARB plus a diuretic. Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration, and discuss a long course with your doctor if you have cardiovascular or kidney risk factors.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bijwerkingen<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Vaak voorkomend:<\/strong> dyspepsia, heartburn, nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhoea or constipation, headache, dizziness, rash, mild ankle swelling<\/li>\n<li><strong>Minder vaak voorkomend:<\/strong> peptic ulcer, GI bleeding, hypertension, elevated liver enzymes, tinnitus, reduced kidney function<\/li>\n<li><strong>Zeldzaam:<\/strong> severe hepatotoxicity, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, aseptic meningitis, anaphylaxis, heart failure aggravation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reactin vs Reactin SR vs Voveran SR<\/h2>\n<p>All three products contain diclofenac.

Anti-inflammatory effect in arthritis builds over 1&ndash;2 weeks of regular dosing.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should I take Reactin with food?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes &mdash; always. Take with or immediately after food. This reduces gastric irritation and GI side effects.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How is Reactin different from Reactin SR?<\/h3>\n<p>Same molecule (diclofenac). Reactin is 50&nbsp;mg immediate-release, dosed 2&ndash;3 times a day. Reactin SR is 100&nbsp;mg sustained-release, dosed once or twice daily. Reactin is preferred for short acute courses; Reactin SR is better for ongoing inflammatory arthritis.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Reactin safer than ibuprofen?<\/h3>\n<p>Per milligram, diclofenac is more potent than ibuprofen but carries higher cardiovascular risk. For occasional short-course use, both are acceptable. For longer use and in patients with cardiovascular disease, low-dose ibuprofen or naproxen is generally preferred.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I take Reactin with paracetamol?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. Paracetamol acts on a different pathway and is routinely combined with diclofenac for stronger pain relief.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I drink alcohol on Reactin?<\/h3>\n<p>Light drinking is usually tolerated. Regular or heavy drinking sharply increases GI bleed risk &mdash; avoid during treatment.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Reactin safe in pregnancy?<\/h3>\n<p>Avoid after 20 weeks of pregnancy; absolutely contraindicated in the third trimester (risk of premature ductus arteriosus closure). Use in early pregnancy only under specialist advice.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I take Reactin long-term?<\/h3>\n<p>For chronic inflammatory arthritis it can be used longer-term at the lowest effective dose, ideally with a proton pump inhibitor and regular review of blood pressure, kidney function, and liver enzymes. For acute musculoskeletal pain, keep the course to 5&ndash;10 days.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I take Reactin with blood-pressure or heart-failure medication?<\/h3>\n<p>Use with caution. Diclofenac can blunt ACE inhibitors, ARBs, and diuretics, and can aggravate heart failure. Short courses are usually manageable; chronic use needs a risk-benefit review with your doctor.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What if I miss a dose of Reactin?<\/h3>\n<p>Take it when you remember, unless your next dose is due within 2 hours. Never double up.<\/p>\n<p><!-- medsbase-related-alts-v1 --><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gerelateerde alternatieven<\/h3>\n<p>Andere producten in <strong>Chronische aandoeningen<\/strong> die klanten ook bekijken:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/paracip\/\">Paracip<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/leetrexate\/\">Leetrexate<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/mesacol\/\">Mesacol<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/valent\/\">Valent<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/clodict\/\">Clodict<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2705 Pain relief<br \/>\n\u2705 Anti-inflammatory properties<br \/>\n\u2705 Reduces swelling<br \/>\n\u2705 Eases joint discomfort<br \/>\n\u2705 Beheert symptomen van artritis<\/p>\n<p>Reactin contains Diclofenac.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":56592,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[3141,3223,3555],"product_tag":[4128,4129],"class_list":{"0":"post-56591","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-category-overview","7":"product_cat-chronic-conditions","8":"product_cat-pain-relief-medication","9":"product_tag-diclofenac","10":"product_tag-reactin","12":"first","13":"instock","14":"shipping-taxable","15":"purchasable","16":"product-type-variable","17":"has-default-attributes"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/56591","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=56591"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/56592"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=56591"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=56591"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=56591"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=56591"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
