If medicated plasters are not used correctly, are used on large areas of skin and for a very long time, these effects can still occur.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e If medicated plasters are used in combination with other medicines containing diclofenac, the likelihood of skin reactions, including after exposure to the sun, such as blistering, erythema and eczema, increases. In rare cases, even serious reactions may occur, such as skin rashes with redness, blistering and peeling (e.g. Stevens-Johnson syndrome, Lyell syndrome).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eReporting of side effects\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIf you get any side effects, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
