Whats the best counter alternative to Diclofenac?

[invertedzer0]

I've tried taking ibuprofen before when i'd run out but it didn't really have much of an effect. Are there any other medicines that you could suggest that are available in th UK without mail order? Diclofenac seems to be the only thing that works well...

I have been on Diclofenac for ten years and it works for me. As my GP stated 'If it works why stop it, or try anything else?' Therefore return to your GP and get the prescription. Best of Luck
