What brand names does diclofenac come in?
Diclofenac is sold under many brand names, which vary by country and by whether it’s a tablet, extended-release product, gel, eye drops, or other formulations.
Common diclofenac brand-name examples (by product type)
Because diclofenac has multiple formulations, brand names usually differ across forms:
- Diclofenac tablets/capsules (oral)
- Voltaren (widely known in the US for oral diclofenac and diclofenac gel)
- Cataflam (diclofenac potassium tablets)
- Voltaren-XR (extended-release oral diclofenac, where available)
- Diclofenac topical gel
- Voltaren Gel (diclofenac sodium topical gel)
- Diclofenac injections
- Voltaren (in some markets, diclofenac is branded for injection as well)
- Diclofenac eye drops (for eye inflammation)
- Commonly sold under separate eye-drop brands that are market-specific (the exact brand depends on your country)
Why your brand-name list may differ from someone else’s
The same active ingredient (diclofenac) can have different brand names depending on:
- Country/region
- Strength (for example, 25 mg vs 50 mg vs 75 mg vs extended-release)
- Salt form (diclofenac sodium vs diclofenac potassium)
- Dosage form (tablet, gel, patch, injection, eye drops)
Quick way to get the exact brand-name list for your location
If you tell me your country (and ideally the formulation—pill vs gel vs eye drops) I can narrow it to the brands you’re most likely to see.
