Which is more effective ibuprofen or diclofenac?

Answers

Official Answer by Drugs.com 24 Jan 2011

Ibuprofen and diclofenac are both nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (usually abbreviated to NSAIDs).
NSAIDs relieve pain and fever and reduce inflammation.
All NSAIDs are similarly effective.

It all depends on how it affects you.Try 1 of the medications one day and the other medication another day and see which one you think works better.That is the best advice that I can give you considering the fact that i am not a doctor.Hope you feel better my friend.Keep in touch.

It is OTC medication for christ sakes!!! What is wrong with you??My answer for you is to take 1 medication and then see how it helps your condition.If you don't feel it addresse's the issues you are having.Try the other pill on a different day than the day you tried the first pill.What i mean is don't take both at the same time.That's dangerous.I am not a scientist just a forums member.So I am sorry if I did not give you the answer you were looking for.Thanks and the best of luck to you--- Arcanoidcyst16
