Voveran SR

Product Overview

Voveran SR is a medication containing the active ingredient Diclofenac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It is formulated as sustained-release tablets designed to provide long-lasting relief from pain and inflammation associated with various conditions. Unlike immediate-release formulations, Voveran SR releases the active ingredient gradually over time, allowing for extended efficacy and reduced dosing frequency. This medication is commonly prescribed to manage symptoms of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and other inflammatory disorders.

Uses

Voveran SR is indicated for the treatment of pain and inflammation associated with acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions. It is particularly useful for individuals who require long-term pain management and prefer the convenience of once-daily dosing. It helps to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and improve joint function, allowing patients to maintain mobility and engage in daily activities with greater ease.

How to Use

To use Voveran SR, swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water, preferably with food to minimize the risk of gastrointestinal side effects. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet, as this may alter the drug’s sustained-release properties. Take it exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider, and do not exceed the recommended dosage or duration of treatment. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.

How it Works

Voveran SR works by inhibiting the activity of cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX-1 and COX-2), which are involved in the synthesis of prostaglandins, hormone-like substances that promote inflammation, pain, and fever. By blocking the production of prostaglandins, it helps to reduce pain and inflammation in the affected tissues. Its sustained-release formulation ensures a gradual and prolonged release of the active ingredient, providing continuous relief over an extended period.

Dosage and Administration

The recommended dosage of Voveran SR depends on the severity of symptoms and the patient’s response to treatment. Generally, the usual starting dose is 100 mg once daily, preferably taken with food. Your doctor may adjust the dosage based on your individual needs and medical condition. Do not crush, chew, or split the tablets, as this may affect their sustained-release properties. It is important to follow your healthcare provider’s instructions carefully to achieve the best results.

Benefits

Voveran SR offers several benefits for individuals with chronic pain and inflammation. Its sustained-release formulation allows for once-daily dosing, reducing the frequency of administration and improving patient compliance. By providing continuous relief over an extended period, it helps to maintain stable blood levels of the active ingredient, minimizing fluctuations in pain control throughout the day. This medication is well-tolerated and effective for long-term management of inflammatory conditions.

Common Side Effects

Common side effects of Voveran SR may include gastrointestinal discomfort, such as nausea, indigestion, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. These side effects are usually mild and transient, resolving on their own with continued use. In rare cases, more serious side effects such as gastrointestinal bleeding, liver or kidney problems, and allergic reactions may occur. If you experience any unusual or persistent symptoms, contact your healthcare provider promptly.

Warnings

Before using Voveran SR, inform your healthcare provider if you have a history of gastrointestinal disorders, cardiovascular disease, kidney or liver impairment, or bleeding disorders. Avoid alcohol consumption while taking it, as it may increase the risk of gastrointestinal side effects. Long-term use of NSAIDs, including Voveran SR, may be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events, such as heart attack or stroke. Use caution when driving or operating machinery, as it may cause dizziness or drowsiness.

Do not store the tablets in the bathroom or kitchen sink, where they may be exposed to moisture. Dispose of any unused medication according to proper disposal guidelines, and do not flush it down the toilet or pour it into a drain unless instructed to do so.
