Aceclofenac works by blocking the action of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, which are involved in the production of prostaglandins, chemicals that promote inflammation, pain, and fever. Paracetamol works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins in the brain, which helps reduce pain and fever.

Scientifically, Aceclofenac is a COX-2 selective inhibitor, which means it specifically targets the COX-2 enzyme, reducing the risk of stomach issues compared to non-selective NSAIDs. Paracetamol's exact mechanism is not fully understood, but it is believed to reduce the synthesis of prostaglandins in the central nervous system.
