How Chymofen Products work
Aceclofenac + Paracetamol + Trypsin Chymotrypsin is a combination of three medicines: Aceclofenac + Paracetamol + Trypsin Chymotrypsin1, Aceclofenac + Paracetamol + Trypsin Chymotrypsin2 and Aceclofenac + Paracetamol + Trypsin Chymotrypsin3, which relieves pain. Aceclofenac + Paracetamol + Trypsin Chymotrypsin1 is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and Aceclofenac + Paracetamol + Trypsin Chymotrypsin2 is an antipyretic (fever reducer). They work by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain that cause pain and fever. Aceclofenac + Paracetamol + Trypsin Chymotrypsin3 is a combination of enzymes which break down proteins into smaller fragments, thereby making them available for absorption into the blood. Once absorbed, they increase blood supply in the affected area and reduce swelling.
