Acofen Ps Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Acofen Ps Tablet 10 consists of three active ingredients:

• Aceclofenac (100 mg): This ingredient is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It selectively inhibits an enzyme called cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), which is crucial for producing prostaglandins - substances that cause inflammation, pain, and fever in the body. By reducing prostaglandin synthesis, aceclofenac helps decrease pain and inflammation.
• Paracetamol/Acetaminophen (325 mg): Paracetamol changes how your body senses pain and cools down your body. It's useful in managing mild to moderate pain and reducing fever. It complements aceclofenac's anti-inflammatory action by providing additional pain relief.
• Serratiopeptidase (15 mg): Derived from a type of bacteria called Serratia marcescens, serratiopeptidase is a proteolytic enzyme. It breaks down inflammatory mediators, such as bradykinin and histamine, and aids in the absorption of inflammatory exudates. This enhances the anti-inflammatory effects of aceclofenac and promotes healing.

• Always keep Acofen Ps Tablet 10 out of children's reach.

• If you're dealing with musculoskeletal conditions such as osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis, aim for a balanced diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Foods like fish, walnuts, and flaxseeds can help manage inflammation.
• Regular low-impact exercises like swimming or cycling can help maintain joint function and flexibility. However, do not overdo it and always consult your doctor before starting any new exercise routine.
