Etoricoxib is a selective COX-2 inhibitor used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and gout. It is approved for use in multiple countries worldwide but was not approved by the FDA in the US due to concerns about cardiovascular risks. Etoricoxib has been shown to be effective in reducing pain and swelling in joints and muscles, with clinical trials demonstrating a favorable safety profile when compared to Ibuprofen. Additionally, studies have suggested that Etoricoxib may be a more potent anti-inflammatory and analgesic drug compared to Ibuprofen, but it is being monitored for potential increased risk of myocardial infarction due to its COX-2 inhibition properties.
Aklief is a retinoid cream that is effective in treating acne. It is safe for use on the face, chest, shoulders, and back. The cream works by removing dead skin cells from the surface to unclog pores and help prevent new acne from forming. It may also reduce inflammatory acne often experienced with pimples. It is recommended to use a moisturizer as frequently as needed from the initiation of the Aklief treatment. The moisturizer can be applied before or after Aklief, allowing sufficient time to let the skin to dry between the moisturizer and Aklief application.
Aceclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug used to relieve pain and inflammation in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. It is an analog of diclofenac and was patented in 1983 and approved for medical use in 1992. Aceclofenac works by inhibiting certain enzymes responsible for the formation of prostaglandin, which helps in relieving pain and reducing swelling. Long-term and high-dose usage of Aceclofenac can potentially cause kidney-related side effects. Aceclofenac is not the same as Ibuprofen or acetaminophen. It has marked anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties and has been demonstrated to be an effective and superior analgesic in the treatment of moderate to severe acute pain.
