Mobifen Suppository 12.5 mg contains Diclofenac Sodium, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for pain relief and inflammation control. This rectal suppository formulation is ideal for patients who cannot take oral medication due to nausea, vomiting, or gastrointestinal sensitivity. It provides effective analgesic and anti-inflammatory action by reducing the production of pain- and inflammation-causing prostaglandins.
