For Back Pain "This medicine is very good for those who can take it. At first, it worked very well for me. By the third refill, I had developed an extreme allergy to this drug. The first sign was extreme itching and severe sweating with dizziness. If this happens, go to the hospital quickly and stop taking the drug. When this started, doctors can't always determine it quickly enough, as in my case. The second time wasn't as severe, but by the third time when my reactions started, I knew. So please don't take it again if you get these reactions. But I do highly recommend this drug for those able to use it."

For Period Pain "Since I got my period when I was 12 years old, I experience an unbearable pain that stops my life completely, accompanied by vomiting and diarrhea, and so many times went to hospital emergency. I may faint from pain, all the people around me know what I suffer in school, university, or at work. Voltaren ampoule worked well so far to the extent that I can give myself the injection in the butt like a boss. It makes me sleepy, and from the huge pain, I feel dizzy, headachy, and very tired, but it's better than the pain for sure. I wish there would be no side effects in the long run. I'm 26 years old now."

For Pain "Voltaren 75 mg for knee inflammation. Stay away! This drug nearly killed me! I am an overall healthy 39-year-old male. Side effects: bloody diarrhea, tarry stool, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, faint, lightheaded, dizzy, racing heart, passed out and fell twice (gastric bleed)! I believe I was on the verge of a heart attack. I cannot believe this drug is still available! No relief whatsoever."
