Thanks chicabow.

Diclofenac (Voltaren) pills are in the NSAID family. Like all NSAIDs, they should not be used for long periods of time. I was on it for about 6 months and my creatinine levels went well beyond the upper limit. This signals kidney damage. I greatly reduced my dose, and my creatinine level came right back down in weels.

IMO, it's best to use oral NSAIDs for periodic pain, and not make a habit of it.

(As for Voltaren gel, I have no idea about the side effects. But logic would suggest limiting use.)

Thanks all.

Joe
