It belongs to the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) class and is often prescribed for conditions that involve joint pain, such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
The "micronized" designation refers to the process of grinding the particles of the drug to a smaller size, which allows for better absorption and effectiveness. This type of diclofenac is commonly used for compounding, which is the process of preparing customized medications to meet individual patient needs.
