  • How to protect my stomach whilst taking Diclofenac (NSAID)?

    I'm having a change of medication and will be taking Diclofenac long-term so I want to be sure to protect my stomach.

    I'd like to hear other people's experiences of what helps - or hinders! - stomach care on NSAIDS. In particular, I'm wondering how much I need to eat with each tablet (I'm not enjoying eating when not particularly hungry) and what the minimum time between doses should be. My old eating pattern was 2 meals a day about mid-day and 5pm with an occasional evening snack. It seems I'll need to change this and I'm trying to work out how I need to adjust for a new medication regime of - ideally - 3 NSAID doses a day.
