Make sure the skin area where you will apply the patch is clean and dry.
Remove the protective liner cautiously. Avoid touching the adhesive side.
Place the patch evenly over the painful area, sticky side down.

Keep it on for the duration recommended by your doctor, typically between 12 to 24 hours.
Once used, fold the patch in half so that the adhesive sides stick together before disposing of it safely.

Nupatch Patch is applied topically.

While using Nupatch Patch, you might experience some of the following side effects:

Application site reactions: This could include redness, itching, or irritation at the area where the patch has been applied.
Skin rash
Dizziness
Headache

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Nupatch Patch. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here's how you can manage some of these side effects:

Application site reactions: Apply a cold compress to the application site to reduce redness, itching, or irritation.
Dizziness: Rest and lie down until the dizziness subsides, and avoid sudden movements.

Nupatch Patch contains diclofenac diethylamine (200 mg), which works on your body in the following ways:

Blocks Prostaglandin Production: Diclofenac diethylamine inhibits the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes that are responsible for making prostaglandins in your body. Prostaglandins are chemicals that cause pain, inflammation and fever.
Reduces Inflammation and Pain: By blocking these enzymes, diclofenac diethylamine effectively reduces inflammation and alleviates pain at the site of application.
Delivers Medication Locally: As a transdermal patch, diclofenac diethylamine is delivered directly through the skin to the affected area. This localised action minimises systemic exposure compared to oral forms of medication.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while using Nupatch Patch if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before using this medicine.

Breastfeeding

If you're breastfeeding, it's wise to discuss using Nupatch Patch with your doctor who can help weigh up the potential risks and benefits.

Alcohol

While using Nupatch Patch, it's generally a good idea to limit your intake of alcohol as it can increase certain side effects.

Liver

If you have liver health problems, talk to your doctor before starting Nupatch Patch. This medicine might affect how well your liver functions.

Kidney

If you have kidney health issues, use Nupatch Patch with caution. As always, it is best to consult your doctor before starting any new medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

Nupatch Patch may cause dizziness in some people. If you experience this, avoid driving or operating machinery until you feel normal again.

Allergy

If you've had allergic reactions to diclofenac, other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or adhesive patches in the past, use Nupatch Patch with caution.

Children

Nupatch Patch is not recommended for those under 18 years of age. Always seek medical advice before giving any medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Older patients should use Nupatch Patch under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Especially if they're over 70 years of age, have liver or kidney issues, or are on other medication, they should consult with their doctor.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Nupatch Patch interacts with the following medicines:

Oral NSAIDs: Using a Nupatch Patch alongside oral NSAIDs like ibuprofen or naproxen can increase the risk of systemic side effects such as gastrointestinal irritation or bleeding.
Anticoagulants: Concurrent use with anticoagulants such as warfarin can increase the risk of bleeding.

Drug-Food Interactions

No specific food items are known to interact with Nupatch Patch.

Cardiovascular disease: This medicine might increase the risk of heart attacks and strokes in individuals with pre-existing cardiovascular diseases.

Daily Dose

Use Nupatch Patch as your doctor has directed. Considering factors like the severity of your condition and how you respond to the medicine, the frequency of using the patch may vary. Always follow your doctor's instructions and never adjust the dosage without consulting them.

Over Dose

Missed Dose

In case you forget to apply Nupatch Patch at the usual time, do it as soon as you remember. But if it's nearly time for your next dose, skip the one you missed and resume your regular schedule. Don't apply extra patches without consulting your doctor.

Store Nupatch Patch at normal room temperature, ideally below 25 degrees Celsius.
Keep the patches in their original packaging to maintain their adhesive properties.
Avoid exposing the medicine to excessive heat or moisture.
Always keep the medicine out of sight and reach of children.
Use the medicine before its expiry date for full effect.

For conditions like osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, maintain a balanced diet rich in calcium and vitamin D. This can help strengthen your bones and potentially reduce joint pain.
Engage in regular, gentle exercise, such as walking or swimming, to keep your joints flexible and strengthen the muscles around them. This can help manage pain associated with muscle or joint conditions.
