Voltaren SR general information

What is Voltaren SR used for?

When you are injured, suffer a disease that causes tissue damage, or are attacked by harmful pathogens, this triggers a local inflammatory response, which causes pain.  The sensation of pain tells you that something is wrong and brings with it a warning to take extra care when using that part of your body.  Voltaren SR tablets 75mg are used to treat the pain and inflammation caused by chronic inflammatory joint diseases.  These include rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and painful syndromes of the vertebral column.  Voltaren SR tablets are also used to treat acute gout, soft tissue injury, and to reduce pain, inflammation, and swelling following surgery such as dental or orthopaedic surgery, and to relieve menstrual pain or dysmenorrhoea.  In addition to other medications like antibiotics, Voltaren SR tablets can help reduce pain and inflammation in severe painful infections of the ear, nose and throat. 

Symptoms of inflammation

Inflammation is a process that heals and restores damaged tissues.  Vascular changes are the first stage of the inflammatory response when small blood vessels dilate (widen) and become more permeable (leaky).  This allows proteins and blood cells into the tissues to fight invading pathogens, remove dead tissue, and promote healing.  These changes result in swelling and redness, and heat is generated by increased blood flow.  Cells of the immune system produce several chemicals such as prostaglandins at the site of inflammation, causing pain. 

Soft tissue injury

Soft tissue injury includes injury or damage to tendons, ligaments, or muscles, also bursa, which are fluid-filled sacs surrounding joints that protect against friction.  Soft tissues within superficial joints include synovial lining of the joint surfaces and cavities, and the joint capsule, the fibrous tissue that attaches to the surface of bone in an articular joint.  Soft tissue injuries include sprains and strains due to trauma, such as sports injuries.  Overuse of a particular part of the body can cause tendinitis, which is inflammation of a tendon resulting in swelling around the elbow or knee.  Tennis elbow is an example of a sports injury caused by overuse of the elbow tendons.  Tenosynovitis is inflammation of the tendon sheath, which is the membrane around a tendon that allows it to stretch.  Bursitis is inflammation around the bursa and is most common in the shoulder, elbow, and hip.  Frozen shoulder is an example of inflammation of a joint capsule.  A soft tissue injury can also cause bruising in the underlying tissues.

Chronic inflammatory joint disease

Rheumatoid arthritis (including juvenile rheumatoid arthritis) is an autoimmune inflammatory joint disease where the synovial membrane becomes inflamed.  The synovium forms a protective lining over the joints.  When it becomes inflamed, it thickens, causing swelling and pain in the joints.  Eventually, the cartilage and bone are damaged and can cause deformities.

Ankylosing spondylitis is an autoimmune inflammatory disease that affects the joints in the spine and pelvis and can cause fusion of the spine. 

Osteoarthritis is more common with increasing age and can also develop as a result of a joint injury, infection, or due to being overweight.  It is often referred to as wear and tear of the bone with the gradual disintegration of the cartilage that covers and protects the ends of the bones in an articular joint.  As cartilage becomes eroded, it leaves the underlying bones exposed and unprotected so that they rub against each other, causing inflammation, pain, and stiffness, which restricts the movement of that joint.  Osteoarthritis is most common in the knees and hips but can also occur in the fingers and spine. 

Gout is a form of arthritis caused by excess uric acid in the blood.  Uric acid crystals become deposited in the joints as crystals that cause inflammation, pain, and swelling. 

Dysmenorrhoea

Primary dysmenorrhoea, or painful periods, is caused by the overproduction of prostaglandins by the lining of the uterus during menstruation.  These prostaglandins cause contractions of the uterine muscle, which is the mechanism that expels the uterine lining during menstruation.  Overproduction can result in increased contractions with muscle cramps and menstrual pain.

Migraine

Migraine causes an intense, throbbing, and painful headache, usually with other symptoms including nausea, vomiting, extreme sensitivity to light, and visual disturbances like zig-zag lines and blurring.  An acute migraine attack is triggered by the release of chemicals in the brain that cause inflammation, pain, and extreme widening (dilation) of brain blood vessels.  Activation of nearby sensory trigeminal nerves induces pain and other symptoms of a migraine.  Voltaren SR tablets are used to help relieve the pain of an acute migraine attack.

How does Voltaren SR work?

Voltaren SR tablets 75mg contain diclofenac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is used to treat pain and inflammation in a range of acute and chronic conditions.  Diclofenac in Voltaren SR tablets has antirheumatic (reduces pain and inflammation in joints), anti-inflammatory (reduces general inflammation), analgesic (pain-relieving), and antipyretic (fever-reducing) properties. 

Diclofenac in Voltaren SR tablets works by inhibiting the action of the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX).  The COX enzyme is critical in the pathway for the synthesis of chemicals called prostaglandins, which are cellular messengers that mediate many cellular processes.  Some prostaglandins (PG), like PGE2, are produced at sites of injury or inflammation and cause pain, swelling, and other symptoms of inflammation.  There are two forms of COX, cyclooxygenase 1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2).  COX-2 is induced during the inflammation process and is responsible for the synthesis of inflammatory prostaglandins, and inhibition of COX-2 helps relieve the symptoms of inflammation, including pain, swelling, and joint stiffness.  Inhibition of COX-1 is responsible for the gastrointestinal side effects that are due to inhibition of protective prostaglandins in the gut and disruption of the regulation of acid content.  Blocking the local production of prostaglandins at the site of inflammation reduces pain and swelling associated with inflammation.

Voltaren SR tablets are coated so that the active ingredient is not released until the tablets have passed through the stomach.  The tablets are formulated for slow, sustained release so that the diclofenac is released gradually into the bloodstream and is therefore effective over a more extended period at stable levels.
