About Acent SD 100mg/15mg Tablet

ACECLOFENAC+SERRATIOPEPTIDASE belongs to a group of medicines called 'Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) used to provide pain relief in various conditions including post-traumatic pain, low back pain, cervical pain, spondylitis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis. Pain can be temporary (acute) or prolonged period (chronic) in nature. Acute pain is for a short time caused by damage to the tissues of the muscle, bone, or organs. Chronic pain lasts for life long caused due to nerve damage, osteoarthritis, and dental pain due to damage to the tooth nerve, infection, extraction, or injury. 

ACECLOFENAC+SERRATIOPEPTIDASE contains two medicines, namely Aceclofenac and Serratiopeptidase. Aceclofenac works by blocking the release of a chemical messenger called prostaglandin, produced by COX-2, responsible for pain, swelling, and inflammation. On the other hand, Serratiopeptidase is a proteolytic enzyme that helps break the insoluble protein (fibrin) by-product of blood clots into smaller units. It also causes thinning of the fluids in the body due to injury, thereby making fluid drainage smoother in the swollen tissue. Together ACECLOFENAC+SERRATIOPEPTIDASE is effective for relieving pain, especially in joint conditions.
