Indications

Flexidol helps ease pain and swelling from osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis, and is also used for toothache, injury-related pain and lumbago (lower back pain).

⚠️ Always consult a registered physician before taking any medicine.

Pharmacology

Aceclofenac is a non-steroidal medicine valued for its anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effects. It works by strongly blocking the cyclooxygenase enzyme, which the body uses to produce prostaglandins. When taken by mouth, it is absorbed quickly and fully in its unchanged form.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Aceclofenac is best avoided during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. It should only be used in these situations if a doctor decides the potential benefit to the mother clearly outweighs the possible risk to the baby.

⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
