Serflam A Tablet consists of aceclofenac, paracetamol and serratiopeptidase. Aceclofenac works by blocking the action of an enzyme known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) which causes pain and swelling at the injured or damaged tissue. Paracetamol acts as mild analgesic (pain reducer) and antipyretic (fever reducer) which enhances the pain relief action of aceclofenac. Serratiopeptidase causes thinning of the fluids around the site of injury thereby making fluid drainage smoother in the swollen tissue. Together these not only reduce pain and inflammation but also help in faster healing.
