Altraday Capsule 10 composition contains Aceclofenac (200 Mg) + Rabeprazole (20 Mg) as its active ingredients.

• Aceclofenac: Aceclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is commonly used for the treatment of pain and inflammation. It belongs to the class of drugs known as phenylacetic acid derivatives. Aceclofenac works by inhibiting the production of certain chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation, making it effective in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis.
• Rabeprazole: Rabeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that is used to reduce the production of stomach acid. It is primarily prescribed for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), gastric ulcers, and duodenal ulcers. Rabeprazole works by blocking the enzyme responsible for acid production in the stomach, thereby providing relief from symptoms like heartburn, acid reflux, and indigestion.
