Re: Diclofenac dosage


snip >I can also tell you that if you have to take cholesterol
lowering medication as well, like I do, the dosage of these two different
medications will cause liver problems if not monitored carefully. For
instance: the most effective dosage of diclofenac for me is 75mg twice a
day, and the most effective dosage of cholesterol lowering medication is
20mg of Zocor. But the two in combination always raises my hepatitis B
liver count to unhealthy levels. So currently I am working with my Dr. to
try and find a combination of the two meds that works, yet doesn't raise
my liver count.

I've been taking 3 x 50mg of Diclofenac Sodium for years now. Once or twice
I've stopped taking it for various reasons. Within a couple of days I can
hardly walk.

I'm four weeks into taking a 10mg daily dose of statins tablets for high
cholesterol. No side effects yet, but I don't know what the symptoms are for
"unhealthy levels". Could you tell me, or won't I know util the moment I
collapse lol
