Listing ID #3648540

Aceclofenac is an orally administered derivative with effects on a variety of inflammatory mediators. It is from the class of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), related to diclofenac. Through its analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties, aceclofenac provides symptomatic relief in a variety of painful conditions.Paracetamol is a nonopiate, non-salicylate analgesic and antipyretic.1. Aceclofenac directly blocks PGE 2 secretion at the site of inflammation by inhibiting IL-Beta & TNF in the inflammatory cells (Intracellular Action). Aceclofenac has been demonstrated to inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX) activity and to suppress the PGE 2 production by inflammatory cells, which are likely to be a primary source of PGE 2 . Inflammatory cells release IL-1 and TNF, which produce PGE 2 by induction of COX-2. Aceclofenac and 4`-hydroxyaceclofenac penetrate the inflammatory cells like polymorphonuclears, monocytes and rheumatoid synovial cells and get hydrolyzed to the active metabolites diclofenac and 4`-hydroxydiclofenac which inhibit IL-1 and TNF released by the inflammatory cells and therefore suppress production of PGE 2 at the site of inflammation.
