Application

Aceclofenac (ACE) has been used as an internal standard in the in vivo blood-brain barrier assay. It has also been used to study the interaction of ACE with bovine serum albumin (BSA) by using spectroscopic techniques in combination with computational methods.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Aceclofenac is a phenyl acetic acid derivative used for treating symptoms like swelling, tenderness, and stiffness due to muscle-skeletal and bone-related diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile arthritis, osteoarthritis, and acute gouty arthritis). This compound shows analgesic and antipyretic properties. Aceclofenac suppresses prostaglandin biosynthesis.
Non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), with selectivity for COX-2 over COX-1.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) induce gastric injury on long-term usage. This study aims at reducing the side effect of NSAIDs by encapsulating in zein, an acid-resistant biopolymer. Aceclofenac-loaded zein microspheres were prepared by emulsification and solvent evaporation method. The stability

Aceclofenac is a phenylacetic acid derivative with anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties similar to those of diclofenac. However, preclinical studies suggest that the potential of aceclofenac to cause gastrointestinal damage is less than that of diclofenac. Double-blind comparative trials indicate that
