Q: What is ACESAID PLUS TABLET used for?
A: ACESAID PLUS TABLET is used to manage acute painful inflammatory conditions (such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis) which can be associated with/without fever in affected individuals.
Q: How ACESAID PLUS TABLET works?
A: ACESAID PLUS TABLET is a combination of Aceclofenac and Paracetamol as active ingredients. Aceclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAIDs). It works by inhibiting the production of certain chemicals in the body, specifically prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are substances that contribute to inflammation, pain, and fever. By reducing the production of prostaglandins, Aceclofenac helps alleviate inflammation and pain associated with conditions such as arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and other inflammatory disorders. Paracetamol is an analgesic and antipyretic. It works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins in the brain. While the exact mechanism is not fully understood, it is believed that paracetamol acts centrally (in the brain) to reduce pain and fever. Unlike NSAIDs, paracetamol has little to no anti-inflammatory effect.
