How It Works (Mechanism of Action)
Accept-SP Tablet works by combining the effects of Aceclofenac and Paracetamol. Aceclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that reduces pain and inflammation by blocking the production of certain chemicals in the body. Paracetamol is an analgesic that helps reduce fever and enhance pain relief.
Scientifically, Aceclofenac inhibits the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX), which is involved in the synthesis of prostaglandins, substances that mediate inflammation and pain. Paracetamol works centrally in the brain to block pain signals and reduce fever.
