About IMEDOL TABLET

DICLOFENAC+TRAMADOL is a combination drug belonging to the painkiller group, primarily used to get relief from pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Pain is an unpleasant sensation and emotional experience that is associated with tissue damage. It allows the body to react and prevent further tissue damage. Pain can be short-term (acute) or long-term (chronic). Perception of pain can differ from person to person where from tolerable to non-tolerable.

DICLOFENAC+TRAMADOL contains Diclofenac (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)) and Tramadol (an opioid). Diclofenac works by blocking the release of chemical messengers, which are responsible for causing pain and inflammation. On the other hand, Tramadol blocks the transmission of pain signals to the brain, and as a result, pain perception is lowered.

Take DICLOFENAC+TRAMADOL as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take DICLOFENAC+TRAMADOL for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending upon your medical condition. The most common side effects of DICLOFENAC+TRAMADOL are nausea, loss of appetite, vomiting, dizziness, indigestion, sleepiness, constipation, heartburn, stomach pain, and dryness in the mouth. Most of these side effects of DICLOFENAC+TRAMADOL are temporary, do not require medical attention, and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Do not take DICLOFENAC+TRAMADOL if you are allergic to NSAIDs, diclofenac, tramadol, or any of the ingredients of DICLOFENAC+TRAMADOL. Consumption of alcohol should be avoided during the treatment with DICLOFENAC+TRAMADOL as it may lead to an increased risk of liver damage and stomach bleeding. Patients with stomach ulcers, gastric bleeding, severe heart failure, high blood pressure, and liver or kidney disease should not take DICLOFENAC+TRAMADOL. DICLOFENAC+TRAMADOL contains diclofenac, a category D pregnancy drug, so it is not recommended that you take DICLOFENAC+TRAMADOL during pregnancy as it may cause fetal deformities.
