How Astofen-D Products work
Drotaverine + Aceclofenac is a combination of two medicines: Drotaverine + Aceclofenac1 and Drotaverine + Aceclofenac2, which relieves abdominal pain and cramps. Drotaverine + Aceclofenac1 is an anti-spasmodic medicine which relieves contractions (spasms) associated with smooth muscles in the abdomen. Drotaverine + Aceclofenac2 is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause abdominal pain and inflammation (swelling).
