How Does It Work?
Aceclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that blocks the release of chemical messengers responsible for pain and inflammation. Thiocolchicoside is a muscle relaxant that acts on the centres in the brain and spinal cord to relieve muscle stiffness and spasm, thereby improving movement and reducing discomfort.
