This medication is a combination of Aceclofenac and Thiocolchicoside, thus it works via a dual mechanism of action. The former drug, Aceclofenac, belongs to the class of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that helps relieve pain. Prostaglandins are responsible for pain, inflammation, swelling and fever. It inhibits the action of cyclooxygenase in the brain which is involved in the production of prostaglandins.

The latter constituent, Thiocolchicoside, is a derivative of glucoside, colchicoside that is contained within the Colchicum autumnale plant. It is a type of synthetic sulphur derivative. This medication has a high affinity for g-aminobutyric acid receptors. It activates GABA pathways and acts on the muscular contractures.

Whenever you take more than one medicine, or mix it with certain foods or beverages, you"re at risk of a drug interaction.
