How Acetal Mr 100/325/250 MG Tablet 10 Works?

Acetal Mr 100/325/250 MG Tablet 10 contains three active ingredients:

  • Aceclofenac (100 mg): As a Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID), aceclofenac works by blocking enzymes called cyclooxygenases. These enzymes help produce prostaglandins, which can cause inflammation, pain, and fever. By inhibiting these enzymes, aceclofenac effectively reduces these symptoms.
  • Chlorzoxazone (250 mg): This ingredient is a centrally-acting muscle relaxant. It acts on certain areas in your brain and spinal cord to inhibit reflexes that cause skeletal muscle spasms. This activity leads to a reduction in muscle spasms and pain, thus increasing mobility.
  • Paracetamol/Acetaminophen (325 mg): Known as an analgesic and antipyretic medication, paracetamol works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins in your body and blocking pain impulse generation in your nervous system. This action effectively reduces pain and fever.
