Common Use

Voveran SR is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to reduce inflammation and alleviate pain in conditions such as arthritis, gout, sprains, fractures, acute injuries, dislocations, back pain, tendinitis, and frozen shoulder. It is also effective in reducing menstrual pain (dysmenorrhea). Voveran SR works by blocking cyclo-oxygenase, which inhibits the production of prostaglandins, substances responsible for pain, swelling, and inflammation.

Dosage and Direction

Take Voveran SR orally with a glass of water, with or without food. Do not cut, crush, or chew the medication. Follow the prescribed dosage and do not exceed it. Do not stop taking the medication without consulting your doctor. It may take time for the medicine to show its full effect. Always consult your doctor for the correct dosage.

Precautions

Before using Voveran SR, inform your doctor or pharmacist if you have any allergies or medical conditions. This medication, like other NSAIDs, can inhibit sodium and lithium excretion, so caution is advised when using it with lithium supplements. Avoid alcohol and smoking during treatment.

Elderly individuals may be more sensitive to the side effects of this medication. It may cause dizziness, drowsiness, and affect concentration, so be cautious when driving or operating machinery. Voveran SR can also lead to stomach and duodenum ulcers, and long-term use or high doses may increase the risk of heart disease.

Inform your doctor if you have Parkinson's disease, kidney or liver disease, high blood pressure, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Contraindications

Voveran SR should not be used by patients with sodium-sensitive hypertension or those who have shown hypersensitivity to the drug. Patients with asthma, urticaria, or reactions to aspirin or other NSAIDs may experience anaphylactic-like reactions when taking Voveran SR.

Side Effects

Common side effects include dry mouth, dizziness, irritability, sedation, insomnia, and urinary retention. Serious allergic reactions are rare. Many users do not experience severe side effects. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more information. If you notice any unlisted adverse reactions, inform your healthcare provider immediately.
