Working Mechanism for Aceclofenac, Paracetamol, Phenylephrine, Cetirizine HCI, and Caffeine Tablets

The working mechanism of this combination therapy has been mentioned as follows: 

• Aceclofenac works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) enzymes, which are responsible for the synthesis of prostaglandins, chemicals that trigger pain, inflammation, and swelling in the body. 
• Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer). It works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause pain and fever, hence reducing the prostaglandin production. 
• Phenylephrine is an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor agonist. It works by constricting blood vessels in the nasal mucosa, acts as a nasal decongestant. It is a vasoconstrictor, providing relief from congestion or stuffiness in the nose.
• Cetirizine is a second-generation antihistamine medication that blocks H1 histamine receptors. This prevents histamine from binding to its receptors, thereby reducing symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, and itching. 
• Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant that works by blocking adenosine receptors in the brain and decreasing sleepiness caused by Cetirizine.
