How it works
Aclopride-D Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Drotaverine and Aceclofenac, which relieves abdominal pain and cramps. Drotaverine is an anti-spasmodic medicine which relieves contractions (spasms) associated with smooth muscles in the abdomen. Aceclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause abdominal pain and inflammation (swelling).

Use caution while driving or doing anything that requires concentration. Avoid consuming alcohol while taking Aclopride-D Tablet as it can cause excessive drowsiness and increase your risk of stomach problems. Inform your doctor if you have severe kidney, liver, or heart disease.
