Mobifen SR Capsule 100 mg contains Diclofenac Sodium in a sustained-release (SR) formulation, designed to provide long-lasting relief from pain and inflammation. Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that helps reduce prostaglandin production, which is responsible for pain, swelling, and inflammation.
