A member asked:
Will i be able to take diclofenac sodium tablets with diclofenac gel?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The amount of diclofenac that is absorbed systemically with the diclofenac gel is very small. It is ok to use a topical NSAID with an oral nsaid. However, there is still a possibility of side effects common with any NSAID taken.
