How Do Aceclofenac 1.50%, Linseed Oil 3.00%, Menthol 5.00%, Capsaicin 0.01%, Methyl Salicylate 10.00% Work?
A combination of five medicines: Methyl salicylate, Aceclofenac, Linseed oil, Menthol, and Capsaicin is an effective treatment used for pain relief.
Aceclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation.
Linseed Oil decreases swelling through its anti-inflammatory properties.
Methyl Salicylate and Menthol work by first cooling the skin and then warming it up. This cooling and warming-up action distracts deeper pain signals and helps relieve muscle and joint aches.
Capsaicin also works similarly to a pain reliever. It increases the blood flow of the affected area to give a warm and soothing feeling.
