Ultra Ace ER 100mg Tablet

About

Ultra Ace ER 100mg Tablet contains aceclofenac, a potent non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) designed to effectively manage moderate to severe pain and inflammation. Its mechanism involves inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, particularly COX-2, thereby reducing the synthesis of prostaglandins, which are key mediators in inflammatory and pain pathways. The extended-release formulation ensures a sustained therapeutic concentration over 24 hours, facilitating convenient once-daily administration and enhancing patient adherence. This higher strength is often prescribed for more severe or persistent inflammatory conditions, providing significant symptomatic relief in chronic musculoskeletal disorders such as severe osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis, improving functional capacity and overall well-being.
