Yes, diclofenac is generally considered safe and effective for treating acute gout attacks as it is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that helps reduce pain and inflammation. However, it should be used with caution in patients with kidney problems, gastrointestinal issues, or cardiovascular disease, and only for short-term use. Always consult a healthcare professional before starting diclofenac for gout.
