Adults: The usual dosage is 75 mg (3 ml) daily, administered by deep intragluteal injection into the upper outer quadrant. In severe cases, (e.g., colic) the dosage may be raised exceptionally to 2 injections (150 mg) daily, allowing an interval of several hours to elapse between injections (a different site of injection should be used e.g. the other buttock). Alternatively, 1 injection (75 mg) can be combined with other dosage forms of diclofenac up to a maximum daily dosage of 150 mg.
The injections should be given for 2 days only, after which treatment should be continued with diclofenac coated tablets or suppositories, if necessary.
Children: Zobid Injections are not suitable for children.
