Mechanism of Action : Aceclofenac is a nonsteroidal phenylacetic acid derivative related to diclofenac. Like other nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDS), aceclofenac is a prostaglandin synthetase (cyclooxygenase) inhibitor, which decreases prostaglandin and leukotriene production, therefore inhibiting the inflammatory process.
Paracetamol works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins in the brain, which are involved in the perception of pain and regulation of body temperature. It is believed to exert its analgesic (pain-relieving) and antipyretic (fever-reducing) effects primarily by inhibiting the activity of the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX), particularly COX-3, in the central nervous system.
Thiocolchicoside: It is a muscle relaxant with anti-inflammatory properties. Thiocolchicoside acts by modulating gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors in the central nervous system, leading to muscle relaxation and relief of muscle spasms.
