Acecloheal Plus Tablet (Aceclofenac + Paracetamol) | Used for Pain, Swelling & Inflammation

Precaution

Acecloheal Plus Tablet should be used carefully, particularly in people with a history of stomach ulcers, gastrointestinal bleeding, kidney disease, liver disease, heart disease, high blood pressure, asthma triggered by painkillers, or bleeding disorders.

Stomach and Intestinal Problems
Aceclofenac may irritate the stomach and intestines and can increase the risk of ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding. Inform your healthcare professional if you have previously experienced ulcers, bleeding, or significant stomach problems.

Liver Problems
Because the medicine contains Paracetamol, people with liver disease or regular alcohol consumption should discuss its use with a healthcare professional. Avoid taking other Paracetamol-containing medicines unless specifically advised.

Kidney Problems
NSAIDs can affect kidney function in some people. Patients with kidney disease, dehydration, or conditions affecting kidney blood flow may require additional monitoring.

Heart and Blood Pressure Conditions
NSAIDs may cause fluid retention and can affect blood pressure. Tell your doctor if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, or a history of stroke.

Allergies and Asthma
Tell your healthcare professional if you have previously experienced an allergic reaction, asthma, wheezing, or nasal symptoms after taking aspirin or other NSAIDs.

Bleeding Risk
Aceclofenac can affect platelet function and may increase bleeding risk, particularly when combined with anticoagulants or other medicines that affect blood clotting.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
Discuss the use of Acecloheal Plus with a healthcare professional if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding. NSAIDs require particular caution during pregnancy.

Other Medicines
Provide a complete list of prescription medicines, over-the-counter products, vitamins, and supplements you use before starting treatment.

Avoid Duplicate Ingredients
Do not combine Acecloheal Plus with another medicine containing Paracetamol or Aceclofenac without medical advice.

Usage 

Acecloheal Plus Tablet should be taken orally as directed by a healthcare professional. Swallow the tablet whole with sufficient water and follow the prescribed dose and treatment duration.

It is generally recommended to take the tablet with or after food, particularly if you experience stomach discomfort with NSAID medicines. Try to take it at a consistent time when used regularly.

Do not exceed the prescribed dose. Since Acecloheal Plus contains Paracetamol, avoid taking other medicines that contain Paracetamol unless your healthcare professional has advised you to do so. Similarly, avoid combining it with other NSAIDs without medical advice.

If you forget a dose, take it when you remember unless it is nearly time for your next dose. Do not take an extra dose to make up for the missed one.
