Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns
You are currently taking diclofenac for pain probably from an injury or back pain. This is an anti-inflammatory medication similar to ibuprofen. Side effects are usual stomach pain or burning and can cause GI bleeding it taken too long. There are no withdrawal problems with diclofenac. You probably feel bad when you miss your medication because the inflammation starts up again
