Voltaren Extra Strength is a topical NSAID and, although it works locally, it’s important to use caution when combining it with other medications—especially oral NSAIDs like ibuprofen or naproxen. Combining multiple NSAIDs can increase the risk of side effects such as stomach bleeding or kidney issues. If you're already taking prescription medications for inflammation or blood pressure, consult your doctor before using Voltaren Extra Strength. The absorption of diclofenac through the skin is less than that of oral NSAIDs, but there is still potential for interaction. For instance, blood thinners like warfarin may have heightened effects if used simultaneously with Voltaren Extra Strength. Additionally, avoid using other topical treatments on the same area to prevent potential skin reactions. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should check with their healthcare provider before use, as NSAIDs can have certain risks. Always read the label carefully and inform your healthcare provider about all current medications and supplements. When used responsibly, Voltaren Extra Strength can be a safe and effective part of a pain management regimen.
