Clinical Overview

Aceclofenac Tablets (100mg, 200mg Sustained Release) is an oral phenylacetic acid-derivative non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) on the WHO Model List framework. It exhibits preferential inhibition of the COX-2 isoenzyme over COX-1, dramatically reducing synthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1beta, TNF-alpha) and PGE2, while stimulating synthesis of extracellular cartilage matrix components (glycosaminoglycans) in articular cartilage. Indicated for symptomatic relief of pain and inflammation in osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and acute musculoskeletal pain.
