No Controlled substance? No Oral diclofenac sodium with misoprostol is combination product containing a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and a cytoprotective (stomach protecting) agent, respectively. It is used as an alternative to other NSAIDs to reduce inflammation and pain associated with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, without causing unwanted side effects, such as stomach irritation and ulcers. Diclofenac with misoprostol has anti-inflammatory, fever-reducing, and pain-relieving properties. Diclofenac works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, an enzyme responsible for making prostaglandins which are mediators of inflammation. Misoprostol, a synthetic prostaglandin E1 analogue, inhibits gastric acid secretion and reduces the risk of gastrointestinal irritation and ulcers.   Next:  Uses »    The information on this page is provided by: http://www.planetrx.com, "Health at your fingertips" For information on obtaining this drug, visit planetRx
