A member asked:
Can i take ibuprofen tablets ( 200mg) and use voltarol ( diclofenac 1.16% ) at the same time? if not which would be best to use for lower back pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Absolutely NOT: these are both NSAIDS which can cause stomach irritation, bleeding and ulceration if taken together. Voltaren (diclofenac) with the use of Bio-Freeze liniment will work fine.
