Aerotec (75/0.2mg) 20 Tablets

Diclofenac sodium and lignocaine combination tablets have a synergistic mechanism of action for pain relief. Diclofenac sodium is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that primarily works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, particularly COX-2, which reduces the production of prostaglandins, leading to decreased inflammation and pain. Lignocaine, on the other hand, is a local anesthetic that blocks voltage-gated sodium channels in nerve cells, thereby preventing the generation and conduction of nerve impulses responsible for pain signals. When combined, diclofenac sodium's anti-inflammatory action reduces the sensitivity of pain receptors, while lignocaine's anesthetic effect further inhibits pain signal transmission, providing enhanced pain relief by targeting both peripheral inflammation and nerve conduction.
