Class

Aceclofenac: Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAIDs)

Paracetamol: Para Aminophenol Derivatives

Mechanism of Action:

Aceclofenac: Its Anti-Inflammatory action is based on the inhibition to prostaglandin synthesis. Aceclofenac is a potent inhibitor of the enzyme cyclo-oxygenase, which is involved in the production of prostaglandins.

Paracetamol: It inhibits the COX pathway in the central nervous system but not the peripheral tissues. It acts within the CNS to increase the pain threshold by inhibiting central cyclooxygenase, an enzyme involved in prostaglandin (PG) synthesis. Paracetamol inhibits both isoforms of central cyclooxygenase, COX-1 and COX-2, but seems to reduce COX activity by a different mechanism than the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
