Ultra Ace ER 50mg Tablet

About

Ultra Ace ER 50mg Tablet contains aceclofenac, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that provides potent analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. It works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, primarily COX-2, which are responsible for the synthesis of prostaglandins, key mediators of pain, inflammation, and fever. The extended-release formulation ensures a sustained therapeutic effect over an extended period, allowing for less frequent dosing and improved patient compliance. This medication is commonly used in the management of various musculoskeletal and joint disorders, offering symptomatic relief from pain and reducing inflammation associated with conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis, thereby enhancing patient quality of life.
