🔬 How This Medicine Works (Pharmacology)

Pharmacokinetics

AbsorptionAceclofenac is rapidly absorbed after oral administration, with peak plasma concentrations reached in about 1.25 to 3 hours. Paracetamol is also rapidly and completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, with peak plasma levels within 0.5 to 2 hours. Food may delay absorption slightly but does not significantly reduce the extent of absorption.
DistributionAceclofenac is highly protein-bound (greater than 99%) and distributes well into synovial fluid. Paracetamol distributes widely into most body tissues, with a volume of distribution of about 0.9 L/kg.
Protein BindingAceclofenac is approximately 99% bound to plasma proteins. Paracetamol is about 10-25% bound to plasma proteins.
MetabolismAceclofenac is metabolized in the liver primarily by cytochrome P450 2C9 to 4'-hydroxyaceclofenac and other metabolites. Paracetamol is metabolized in the liver via glucuronidation and sulfation, with a small fraction metabolized by CYP2E1 to a toxic intermediate, N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine (NAPQI), which is detoxified by glutathione.
Half-LifeThe elimination half-life of Aceclofenac is approximately 4 hours. Paracetamol has a half-life of about 2 to 3 hours.
ExcretionAceclofenac and its metabolites are excreted mainly in urine. Paracetamol metabolites are excreted primarily in urine.
BioavailabilityThe oral bioavailability of Aceclofenac is approximately 100% due to rapid absorption and low first-pass metabolism. Paracetamol has an oral bioavailability of about 80-100%.
Onset of ActionPain relief typically begins within 30 to 60 minutes after oral administration.
Peak Plasma TimeAceclofenac peak plasma concentration occurs at about 1.25 to 3 hours. Paracetamol peak plasma concentration occurs at about 0.5 to 2 hours.
Duration of ActionThe analgesic effect lasts approximately 4 to 6 hours, necessitating dosing two to three times daily.

How It Works

This medicine combines two active ingredients with complementary mechanisms. Aceclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that inhibits the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, particularly COX-2, leading to decreased synthesis of prostaglandins, which are mediators of pain, inflammation, and fever. Paracetamol acts predominantly in the central nervous system by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis and modulating pain perception, and it also affects the hypothalamic heat-regulating center to reduce fever. Together, they provide analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic effects.

Mechanism Steps

1
COX enzyme inhibition by Aceclofenac: Aceclofenac reversibly inhibits cyclooxygenase enzymes, reducing the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandin H2.
2
Reduced prostaglandin synthesis: Decreased prostaglandin production leads to less sensitization of pain receptors and reduced inflammation.
3
Central analgesic action of Paracetamol: Paracetamol acts on the central nervous system to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis and modulate pain pathways, providing additional pain relief.
4
Antipyretic effect: Paracetamol acts on the hypothalamus to lower fever by promoting heat loss.
