How It Works (Mechanism of Action)
Asozen SR Plus works by combining the effects of Aceclofenac and Paracetamol. Aceclofenac reduces inflammation and pain by blocking the production of certain chemicals in the body. Paracetamol helps reduce fever and enhances pain relief.
Scientifically, Aceclofenac inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, which are involved in the synthesis of prostaglandins, thereby reducing inflammation and pain. Paracetamol acts centrally to inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins in the brain, which helps in reducing fever and enhancing analgesic effects.
