Do not take any other medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Q. Can the use of Aceclofenac+Paracetamol cause dizziness?

Yes, the use of Aceclofenac+Paracetamol can cause dizziness (feeling faint, weak, unsteady or lightheaded) in some patients. If you feel dizzy or lightheaded, it is better to rest for sometime and resume once you feel better.

Q. Can the use of Aceclofenac+Paracetamol cause damage to kidneys?

Yes, the long-term use of Aceclofenac+Paracetamol can cause damage to the kidneys. Normal kidneys produce a chemical messenger called prostaglandins that protects them from damage. Use of painkillers lowers the levels of prostaglandins in the body which leads to kidney damage on long-term use. Use of painkillers is not recommended to patients with underlying kidney disease.
