Contribution to the article on Diclofenac
editHi Dr. James,
I recently came across a claim on Diclofenac that had a single and seemingly unrelated source attached to it - this was first added to the article in May 2016 by you. I think the claim itself is plausible, but it's not clear to me; if you think it's backed up by a different source, the article would definitely benefit from an expert like you looking at it again.
Here's a link to my diff for reference. Cheers! Defiect (talk) 04:26, 11 July 2026 (UTC)
- Yah must have put in an incorrect pmid. It is available as a topical cream but that was an incorrect source Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 04:54, 11 July 2026 (UTC)
