Sofac P 50mg Tablet – Diclofenac Potassium for Pain & Inflammation
Sofac P 50mg Tablet contains Diclofenac Potassium, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that provides effective relief from pain, inflammation, and swelling in a wide range of musculoskeletal and other conditions.
Diclofenac Potassium works by inhibiting COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, which reduces the production of prostaglandins — the mediators responsible for pain, inflammation, and fever. The potassium salt formulation offers faster absorption compared to the sodium salt, making it particularly useful for acute pain conditions such as dental pain, menstrual cramps, and post-operative discomfort.
Sofac P is indicated for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, soft tissue injuries, back pain, and musculoskeletal disorders. It should be used at the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration necessary — long-term NSAID use requires regular medical monitoring for gastric and cardiovascular effects.
