How It Works

Aceclofenac blocks cyclooxygenase enzymes that produce prostaglandins, reducing inflammation, pain, and swelling at the site of injury. Paracetamol works centrally by inhibiting pain pathways in the brain and reducing fever through action on the hypothalamic heat-regulating center.

Dosage

Take Oetco Forte with food to minimize stomach upset. Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration possible.

Duration of Action

Oetco Forte begins working within 30-60 minutes of administration. Pain relief typically peaks within 1-2 hours and lasts 8-12 hours per dose. Fever reduction occurs within 1 hour and is sustained for 6-8 hours.

Side Effects

Common side effects include nausea, abdominal pain, heartburn, dizziness, and headache. Some patients may experience indigestion, drowsiness, or skin rash. Most side effects are mild and resolve without intervention. Notify your doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.

Warning

Avoid combining with other NSAIDs, aspirin, or naproxen unless specifically approved by a healthcare provider. Not recommended for children under 12 years old. Use lowest effective dose for shortest duration to minimize risk of adverse effects including stomach ulcers and cardiovascular events.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

Oetco Forte should be avoided during pregnancy, especially in the third trimester, as it may cause harm to the developing fetus or complications during delivery. Consult healthcare provider before use during breastfeeding as both components may pass into breast milk.

Interaction

• Increased risk of bleeding with anticoagulant medications
• May reduce effectiveness of blood pressure medications
• Possible increased toxicity when combined with methotrexate
• May enhance effects of certain diabetes medications
• Alcohol consumption increases risk of liver damage and stomach bleeding

Precaution

Use with caution in patients with history of stomach ulcers, kidney disease, liver problems, or heart conditions. Elderly patients require reduced doses and careful monitoring. Avoid alcohol consumption during treatment. Stop use and consult doctor if severe stomach pain, black stools, or signs of allergic reaction occur.
