Components and benefits of Aceclofenac 50 mg + Paracetamol 125 mg
Aceclofenac 50mg
- Class: NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs)
- Uses: Aceclofenac is used in the management of a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis since it induces a reduction in pain and inflammation.
- Mechanism of Action: The mechanism through which Aceclofenac acts is through the inhibition of the cyclooxygenase enzyme that normally prevents prostaglandins from being formed. These prostaglandins are mediators of fever, pain, and inflammation. Aceclofenac reduces both because it is a product that decreases their formation.
Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) 125 mg
- Class: Analgesic and antipyretic
- Uses: Paracetamol is widely used for the treatment of fever and for mild to moderate aches that are associated with colds, headaches, fever, muscle aches, arthritis, backache, and toothaches.
