Acufenac 75 MG Injection 1 ML contains diclofenac (75 MG), which functions in the following ways:

• Inhibition of COX enzymes: Diclofenac primarily inhibits your body's cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, especially COX-2. These enzymes play a crucial role in producing substances called prostaglandins at sites of injury or inflammation.

• Reduction of inflammation: By inhibiting COX enzymes, diclofenac reduces the production of pro-inflammatory prostaglandins like PGE2. This decreases inflammation and associated symptoms such as pain, swelling, and fever.

• Central analgesic effects: Apart from its peripheral anti-inflammatory action, diclofenac may also exert analgesic effects centrally in the brain to further alleviate pain.

• If dealing with osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis, regular gentle exercises like swimming or cycling can help manage symptoms. However, avoid high-impact activities that may strain your joints.

• A balanced diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids like fish, chia seeds, and walnuts can help decrease inflammation associated with arthritis or musculoskeletal injuries.
