Introduction About ALGESIA CR CAPSULE

ALGESIA CR CAPSULE is a combination of Aceclofenac and Rabeprazole which belongs to the group of medicines called Analgesics and Proton pump inhibitors respectively. It is used to manage inflammation and relive pain in conditions like rheumatoid arthritis (autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in the joints), osteoarthritis (loss of the cartilage and bone tissue causing joint pain), back pain or postsurgical pain.

Do not use ALGESIA CR CAPSULE if you are allergic to other NSAIDs like ibuprofen or aspirin. Before taking ALGESIA CR CAPSULE, inform your doctor if you have a history of stomach ulcer or tumour, have vomited blood, passed blood in faeces, have any kidney, heart, liver, bowel or blood clotting problems, porphyria, diabetes, chicken pox or if you have undergone any bypass surgery.

How ALGESIA CR CAPSULE Works

ALGESIA CR CAPSULE relieves pain and inflammation where Aceclofenac blocks the release of prostaglandins (certain chemicals) responsible for causing pain and inflammation and Rabeprazole relieves acidity caused by aceclofenac by specific inhibition of an enzyme system at the secretory surface of stomach cells, that results in blockage of the final step of acid production.
