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.
