Aceclofenac + Paracetamol + Serratiopeptidase Tablets

Aceclofenac + Paracetamol + Serratiopeptidase Tablets come with the branding “ACEVNO-SP” and are a class of ‘non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs’ (NSAID). It is a fixed-dose formulation of aceclofenac, paracetamol, and serratiopeptidase. Aceclofenac+paracetamol+serratiopeptidase is indicated for pain and inflammation reduction in bone or soft tissue injury, postoperative inflammation resolution, oedema (fluid-containing swollen tissue,) and pain. Aceclofenac inhibits the activity of an enzyme called cyclo-oxygenase (COX), which is responsible for pain and inflammation in the damaged or injured tissue.

Paracetamol is a weak analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reliever), which augments the analgesic effect of aceclofenac. Serratiopeptidase is an enzyme that facilitates the degradation of a protein (fibrin) formed as a by-product of the clotted blood at the site of injury. It hence leads to thinning of the fluids around the area of injury, thus facilitating fluid drainage to be easier in the inflamed tissue.
