What it is used for

This injection is used for short-term relief of moderate to severe pain with inflammation, such as sudden back pain, muscle and joint pain, pain after injury or surgery, and colic from kidney stones. It is given into a large muscle by a doctor or nurse. The lidocaine is included to reduce pain from the injection itself.

How it works

Diclofenac blocks enzymes (COX) that make prostaglandins, chemicals that cause pain, swelling and fever. Lidocaine is a local anaesthetic that briefly numbs the area where the injection is given.

Questions people ask

Why is lidocaine added to a diclofenac injection?

Lidocaine is a local anaesthetic. It numbs the muscle for a short time, making the injection less painful.

Can I have a diclofenac injection if I might have dengue?

No. During dengue, NSAIDs like diclofenac can increase the risk of bleeding. Doctors usually advise paracetamol for fever and pain in dengue instead.

Is an injection safer than diclofenac tablets?
