FAQ
Which pack sizes of Voveran SR can I order?
Voveran SR tablets are 100mg diclofenac, sold in packs of 30 to 360, and you receive Voveran SR. Larger packs cost less per tablet.
How do I pay for a Voveran SR order?
Pay for Voveran SR by Visa, Mastercard or American Express on a secure, encrypted payment page, or with Bitcoin or Ethereum. Card details never reach the shop's servers. Orders can be cancelled within 24 hours if not yet dispatched.
Does Voveran SR have other names?
Voveran SR is a branded generic of diclofenac, the ingredient in Cataflam, Voltaren and Voltarol. Diclofenac is also sold as Dynapar, Flector, Pennsaid and Solaraze. Here, diclofenac can be bought online as Voveran SR, and also as generic Voltaren and diclofenac tablets. These are generics, not the original brand.
How long does one Voveran SR tablet work for?
The slow-release design is meant to cover roughly a full day, which is why one tablet is taken rather than two or three. A plain 50mg diclofenac tablet acts sooner but its effect fades within hours, so it is repeated during the day.
Is Voveran SR the same as Voltaren SR?
They share a 100mg strength and the same slow-release design; only the brand name differs. Each brand also has a 50mg tablet for a smaller dose taken more often.
Can I drink alcohol with Voveran SR?
The odd drink is unlikely to cause trouble. Heavy drinking is the problem, because alcohol and diclofenac together make bleeding in the stomach more likely, and a long course raises that risk further.
What should I do if I forget a Voveran SR tablet?
If you remember later the same day, take it then. When the next tablet is almost due, let the missed one go and carry on as usual; doubling up gives a bigger dose of diclofenac and a more unsettled stomach.
Can I take Voveran SR with my blood pressure tablets?
Diclofenac can make the body retain fluid, so blood pressure may creep up and medicines such as water tablets and ACE inhibitors may do less than before. Checking your readings during a long course is sensible.
About Voveran SR
What Voveran SR is for
Voveran SR is a 100mg tablet of diclofenac, an anti-inflammatory painkiller of the NSAID group (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug). It is aimed at problems that run on for weeks or months: osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, where the joint lining becomes inflamed, ankylosing spondylitis, which leaves the spine stiff and sore, and muscle or joint pain that lingers after a strain.
Why one tablet a day is enough
A plain diclofenac tablet gives up its dose all at once, so it has to be repeated through the day. The SR on this pack means slow release: the tablet lets the drug out gradually as it travels through the gut, which keeps the level in the blood even and lets one tablet, morning or evening, cover the day. The medicine itself works by blocking the enzymes that make prostaglandins, the chemicals behind heat, swelling and soreness in damaged tissue.
Take it at the same time daily with food or a glass of milk, and swallow it whole — the coating controls the release, and chewing or crushing dumps the dose at once.
Side effects to watch for
Indigestion and heartburn come first, sometimes with wind, nausea or loose stools, and taking the tablet with food makes them less likely. Stools that turn black and sticky, or vomit resembling coffee grounds, point to bleeding in the stomach or gut and need urgent care. Over months, diclofenac can also affect the kidneys, raise blood pressure and add to the risk of a heart attack or stroke.
Alcohol, other painkillers and blood pressure medicines
Drinking heavily while on diclofenac makes stomach bleeding more likely, so keep alcohol light. Two NSAIDs together, diclofenac plus ibuprofen or aspirin, multiply the stomach risk. Warfarin and similar blood thinners become more potent alongside it, so bruising or bleeding is more likely. Steroid tablets, and antidepressants of the SSRI type, add to the same stomach risk. Diclofenac makes the body hold on to fluid, which can weaken diuretics and ACE inhibitors, lift blood pressure, and slow the clearance of methotrexate and lithium.
Voveran SR beside the other diclofenac tablets
Voveran SR is the 100mg slow-release tablet. Voveran holds 50mg of the same medicine in a tablet usually repeated through the day, while Voltaren comes in 50mg and 100mg strengths. Voltaren SR matches Voveran SR in strength and design under a different brand name. A 50mg tablet acts sooner and fades sooner; the slow-release version trades that speed for steady cover. The diclofenac page sets out the whole range.
