INJECTABLE PREPARATIONS OF DICLOFENIC AND ITS PHARMACEUTICALLY ACCEPTABLE SALTS, AND PROCESSES FOR THE PREPARATION THEREOF

摘要

The present invention provides injectable formulations of water-soluble salts of diclofenac in single doses of less than 2 ml, which cause significantly less pain at the site of injection and can be administered by intradeltoid route, in addition to intragluteal and slow intravenous route. More specifically the injectable preparations contain 75 mg to 100 mg of water-soluble salts of diclofenac, in about 1 ml injection solution without significantly raising the viscosity of the injection solution without the use surfactants.
