Diclofenac is an old formula while aceclofenac is new improved one... Action us same... But with less damage and low dose required.

Aceclofenac and diclofenac are both non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs. Coming to your question of better or more powerful. They are two totally different concepts you have mixed up. Better is based on efficacy of the analgesic without causing much side effects and powerful is based on its extent of action irrespective of what side effects it has. Between the two aceclofenac is better and diclofenac is more powerful.
