Pain Relief

Voveran

Voveran is used for treating mild to moderate pain. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Use Voveran as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

Voveran comes with an extra patient information sheet called a Medication Guide. Read it carefully. Read it again each time you get Voveran refilled.

Take Voveran by mouth. It may be taken with food if it upsets your stomach. Taking it with food may not lower the risk of stomach or bowel problems (eg, bleeding, ulcers). Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you have persistent stomach upset.

Take Voveran with a full glass of water (8 oz/240 mL) as directed by your doctor.

Voveran is an NSAID. Exactly how it works is not known. It may block certain substances in the body that are linked to inflammation. NSAIDs treat the symptoms of pain and inflammation. They do not treat the disease that causes those symptoms.

If you miss a dose of Voveran , take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose. Go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.

Store Voveran at 77 degrees F (25 degrees C). Brief storage at temperatures between 59 and 86 degrees F (15 and 30 degrees C) is permitted. Store away from heat, moisture, and light. Do not store in the bathroom. Keep Voveran out of the reach of children and away from pets.

• you are allergic to any ingredient in Voveran or to bovine (cow) protein
