A member asked:
Can i take diclofenac sodium tablets with diclofenac gel? is that ok to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Although there may not be any consequence to this, theoretically your blood levels of diclofenac in combination may cause problems such as GI upset, kidney or even liver and heart issues particularly when taken for prolonged periods.
