How it works

Aceclofenac, an NSAID, is in the ACIMOL-SR 200 mg Tablet. It acts by stopping the release of prostaglandins, which are chemicals that cause pain, swelling, and fever. This helps lessen swelling, stiffness, and pain in the areas that are impacted.

The SR (Sustained Release) formulation lets the medicine work for a longer time, so you only have to take it once a day to have pain relief that lasts.

 Medicines interaction

• Other NSAIDs, like ibuprofen and diclofenac, may make the risk to the stomach higher.
• Anticoagulants (like warfarin) make you more likely to bleed.
• Antihypertensives (such as ACE inhibitors and diuretics) may not work as well.
• Corticosteroids—more likely to cause stomach ulcers.
• Methotrexate or lithium may make them more harmful.
• Alcohol raises the risk of liver damage and stomach discomfort.

• Do not crush or chew the tablet; just swallow it whole with water.
• Take it once a day, at the same time every day, after meals.
