ACENAC-SP Tablets 10’s

ACENAC-SP is a combination medication with the following composition:

• Aceclofenac 100 mg
• Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) 325 mg
• Serratiopeptidase 15 mg

Composition and Purpose:

1. Aceclofenac (100 mg):
   • A nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that helps to reduce inflammation, pain, and swelling. It is commonly used for treating conditions like arthritis, musculoskeletal pain, and other inflammatory disorders.
2. Paracetamol (Acetaminophen, 325 mg):
   • An analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer). Paracetamol helps in managing mild to moderate pain and lowering fever. It works differently from NSAIDs and is typically used in combination with other drugs for enhanced pain relief.
3. Serratiopeptidase (15 mg):
   • An enzyme with anti-inflammatory and tissue-protective properties. It is used for its ability to break down fibrin (a protein involved in inflammation and scar tissue formation), helping reduce swelling and promote healing. Serratiopeptidase is often used in conditions with swelling and inflammation, such as post-surgical recovery or traumatic injuries.

Color:

• Sunset Yellow Lake and Titanium Dioxide IP are used as colorants to give the tablet its color and appearance. Sunset Yellow is often used in food and drugs as a coloring agent, while Titanium Dioxide is commonly used as a whitening agent.

Dosage:

• The dosage should be as directed by a physician. Typically, 1 tablet twice a day is recommended, but the exact dosage depends on the individual’s health condition and the physician’s prescription.

Storage Instructions:

• Store in a cool, dry place and protect the tablets from light. This helps preserve the efficacy of the medication.

Usage and Precautions:

• This combination is often prescribed for conditions involving pain and inflammation, such as arthritis, muscle pain, or post-traumatic swelling.
• Always take the medication exactly as directed by your healthcare provider to avoid side effects.
• Be cautious if you have a history of gastrointestinal issues, kidney or liver disorders, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Common Side Effects:

• Aceclofenac: May cause gastrointestinal disturbances, headaches, dizziness, and in rare cases, ulcers or bleeding.
• Paracetamol: Generally well-tolerated, but excessive doses can lead to liver damage.
• Serratiopeptidase: Side effects are rare but may include mild gastrointestinal discomfort.

As always, it’s important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting or adjusting your medication.
