Actifast 50 Mg 30 Sachets

Description:

Actifast 50 mg 30 sachets is an oral prescription-strength non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (nsaid) containing diclofenac potassium. It is formulated in convenient single-dose sachets for rapid relief of pain and inflammation associated with musculoskeletal and joint disorders, as well as acute painful conditions. Diclofenac potassium provides analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic effects by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis, making Actifast suitable for short-term management of moderate pain under medical supervision.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as prescribed by your physician or as directed by a healthcare professional.
• Adults: Common oral diclofenac potassium regimens for pain are typically 50 mg 2–3 times daily; however, the exact dose, frequency, and duration must be determined by the doctor based on the condition and patient factors. Follow your doctor’s instructions strictly.
