Diclofenac may disrupt electrolyte balance by impairing kidney function, increasing the risk of potassium, sodium, and water imbalances in long-term users.
Long-term diclofenac use can lead to sodium and water retention, occasionally resulting in potassium loss, which might destabilize overall electrolyte levels.
