Withdrawal From Diclofenac
(Newest replies first)

My mom is taking diclofenac sodium 50mg each night before sleep for sciatica from past 5 years. Unfortunately, we could not seek a permanent treatment or any other better medicine for this disorder. Now, I want that she could be able to withdraw from it because I think it can cause serious side effects in prolong use. How she can withdraw from it and what are other best options to cure her disorder?

Hey Reet, your mom can try Tribedoce compuesto which is twice the benefit for her because this is a Vitamin B complex with dicoflenac. This has saved my life from joint pain, plantar fasciitis and sciatica.

Hello, Reet! How is your mom doing?

This is not a habit forming medication, it is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, so she should be able to just stop taking it, as long as her doctor approves. However, as warned by the FDA, it may cause some rebound pain and diarrhea, if she stops it.

As to her sciatica, whether or not anything can cure or help it depends on the root cause. Has she ever had it checked out by a doctor? She may need surgery or physical therapy.
