What is Aceclofenac?

Aceclofenac, the active ingredient in Iasan, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) presented as an oral dosage form for systemic use. It is employed to relieve pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and other musculoskeletal conditions.

GNH USA supplies Iasan as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

What is Aceclofenac used for?

Aceclofenac is indicated for inflammatory and degenerative joint disorders where cyclo‑oxygenase inhibition reduces pain and swelling. - Osteoarthritis: reduces joint pain and improves functional mobility. - Rheumatoid arthritis: alleviates inflammatory pain and stiffness in affected joints. - Ankylosing spondylitis: diminishes spinal inflammation and associated discomfort. - Musculoskeletal pain: provides relief from acute or chronic soft‑tissue pain.

What are the side effects of Aceclofenac?

Adverse reactions to aceclofenac may range from mild, frequently observed events to rare but serious conditions. Common Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal discomfort: nausea, dyspepsia or abdominal pain. - Headache or dizziness. - Skin rash or itching. Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Peptic ulcer disease or gastrointestinal bleeding. - Severe liver injury or jaundice. - Renal impairment or acute kidney injury.

What precautions apply to Aceclofenac?

When prescribing aceclofenac, clinicians should consider several precautionary measures to minimize risk. - Assess gastrointestinal risk: evaluate history of ulcers or bleeding before use. - Monitor hepatic function: perform baseline liver tests and repeat as needed. - Evaluate renal status: avoid in patients with severe kidney disease. - Use caution in cardiovascular disease: consider alternative therapy if high risk. - Avoid in known hypersensitivity to aceclofenac or other NSAIDs. - Store at ambient temperature: keep below 25 °C, in original packaging, protected from moisture.

What does Aceclofenac interact with?

Aceclofenac can interact with other medicines, altering efficacy or safety. Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased bleeding risk. - Other NSAIDs or COX‑2 inhibitors: heightened gastrointestinal toxicity. - High‑dose aspirin: additive antiplatelet effect. Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: may reduce renal function. - Diuretics: risk of electrolyte imbalance and renal impairment. - Lithium: NSAIDs can increase lithium serum levels.

Frequently asked questions

What conditions is Iasan used to treat?+
Iasan contains aceclofenac and is prescribed for inflammatory joint disorders such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and for general musculoskeletal pain where reduction of inflammation and pain is required.
How does aceclofenac work?+
Aceclofenac works by reversibly inhibiting the cyclooxygenase‑1 and cyclooxygenase‑2 enzymes, which reduces the synthesis of prostaglandins. Lower prostaglandin levels diminish inflammation, pain, and fever at the site of tissue injury.
What determines the dosage of Iasan?+
The exact dose of Iasan is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the patient’s specific condition, severity of symptoms, age, renal and hepatic function, and any concomitant medications. No fixed regimen is provided here.
Is aceclofenac safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Aceclofenac falls under an unknown pregnancy category, and safety data are limited. It should only be used during pregnancy or lactation if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk, and under close medical supervision.
How do I order Iasan from GNH USA?+
To order Iasan, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com specifying the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any required import documentation.
How does Iasan compare with other NSAIDs such as ibuprofen?+
Aceclofenac, the active ingredient in Iasan, offers similar anti‑inflammatory and analgesic effects to ibuprofen but is often reported to have a lower incidence of gastrointestinal irritation. Both belong to the NSAID class, yet individual patient response and safety profiles may differ.
How should I store Iasan?+
Iasan should be stored at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C. Keep the tablets in the original packaging, protect them from moisture and direct sunlight, and keep out of reach of children.
How is Iasan administered?+
Iasan is taken orally, usually with a full glass of water. It can be taken with or without food, but patients who experience stomach upset may benefit from taking it with meals as advised by their clinician.
What are the most serious risks associated with Iasan?+
Serious risks include gastrointestinal ulceration or bleeding, severe liver injury, acute kidney impairment, and rare hypersensitivity reactions such as anaphylaxis. Patients with a history of cardiovascular disease should also be monitored closely.
Who should not use Iasan?+
Iasan should be avoided in individuals with known hypersensitivity to aceclofenac or other NSAIDs, those with active gastrointestinal ulceration or bleeding, severe renal or hepatic impairment, and patients who have had a recent myocardial infarction or stroke unless specifically directed by a physician.
