About Aciky-PG 200/75 Tablet SR

ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN is a combination medicine used for the management of neuropathic pain. Neuropathic pain is a chronic progressive nerve disease that causes nerve pain due to nerve damage or a malfunctioning nervous system. The pain could be intermittent or continuous, which is felt as a prickling, stabbing, tingling, or burning sensation.

ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN is a combination of two drugs: Pregabalin (anti-convulsant), and Aceclofenac (NSAID). Pregabalin works by changing how nerves send messages to your brain. Aceclofenac works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzyme that makes another chemical 'prostaglandins' (PG). Prostaglandins play an important role in controlling pain and inflammation. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, lesser PGs are produced. This reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site decreasing stiffness in joints. Together, ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN helps to treat neuropathic pain (pain due to nerve damage).

Take ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN with or without food. Swallow ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN as a whole with a glass of water; do not chew, or break the tablet. You are advised to take ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, diarrhea, loss of appetite, heartburn, dryness in the mouth, dizziness, sleepiness, and uncoordinated body movements. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Please do not stop taking ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN without consulting your doctor as it could cause withdrawal symptoms. Do not take ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN if you are pregnant or breastfeeding unless prescribed by the doctor. Women of child-bearing potential should use effective contraception. ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN causes drowsiness and dizziness, so drive only if you are alert. ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN should not be given to children as safety and effectiveness have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN as it could lead to increased dizziness and sleepiness.

Medicinal Benefits of Aciky-PG 200/75 Tablet SR

ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN is a combination of two drugs: Pregabalin (anti-convulsant), and Aceclofenac (NSAID's). Pregabalin belongs to a group of medications called 'anticonvulsants' used to prevent neuropathic pain (pain due to damaged nerves), fibromyalgia (musculoskeletal pain), and epilepsy (fits). It works by calming the damaged or overactive nerves in your body that may cause pain or seizures, thereby decreasing the number of pain signals sent out by damaged nerves in the body. Overall it reduces the pain which has been damaged or irritated due to conditions like chronic conditions, diabetes, trauma, or epilepsy. Aceclofenac belongs to a group of medicines called Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) used to reduce and relieve pain, redness, and inflammation (swelling) in patients suffering from osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzyme that makes another chemical 'prostaglandins' (PG). These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, lesser PGs are produced. This helps in reducing mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Together, ACECLOFENAC+PREGABALIN helps to treat neuropathic pain (pain due to nerve damage).
