🔬 How This Medicine Works (Pharmacology)
Pharmacokinetics
How It Works
This medicine combines two active ingredients with complementary mechanisms. Diclofenac is a non-selective non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that reversibly inhibits cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzymes, leading to decreased synthesis of prostaglandins, prostacyclin, and thromboxane. This results in analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic effects. Paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen, acts predominantly in the central nervous system by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis, possibly through COX-3 inhibition or interaction with the endogenous cannabinoid system. It also has a mild antipyretic effect via action on the hypothalamic heat-regulating center. The combination provides enhanced pain relief through different pathways.
