As a pharmacist and manufacturer, I view this as a “Triple-Action” formulation. It combines a non-NSAID analgesic (Paracetamol), a potent NSAID (Diclofenac), and an alkaloid adjuvant (Caffeine) to attack pain through three distinct biological pathways.

Therapeutic Category Breakdown

• Paracetamol: Non-Opioid Analgesic & Antipyretic.

• Diclofenac Sodium: Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID).

• Caffeine: Central Nervous System (CNS) Stimulant & Analgesic Adjuvant.

Mechanism: The Triple-Action Synergy

This combination is technically superior for acute pain because it addresses both the chemical signals of pain and the physical inflammation.

Anti-Inflammatory (Diclofenac): It inhibits the COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, stopping the production of prostaglandins at the site of injury, thereby reducing swelling and “peripheral” pain.

Central Analgesia (Paracetamol): It works primarily in the Central Nervous System, elevating the overall pain threshold and reducing fever.

The Accelerator (Caffeine): It blocks Adenosine receptors and increases the absorption rate of the other two ingredients, allowing for a faster “onset of action” and deeper pain relief.

The Pharmacist’s “Technical Warning”

As you promote your firm on digital platforms, providing these technical nuances is essential for clinical authority:

• Gastric Protection: Due to the Diclofenac content, these tablets must be taken with food to protect the stomach lining from irritation or potential ulceration.

• The “Double-Dosing” Risk: Advise patients not to take additional Paracetamol or NSAIDs (like Ibuprofen) while using this FDC, as it increases the risk of liver toxicity and renal strain.

• Cardiac/Renal Alert: This category should be used with caution in patients with high blood pressure or kidney impairment due to the sodium-retaining properties of Diclofenac.

The Manufacturer’s Perspective: Technical & Export

From a production and B2B standpoint at your facility in Mumbai:

• The “Acute Pain” USP: On your marketplace, highlight this as a “Fast-Acting” solution for severe dental pain, post-surgical recovery, and acute musculoskeletal injuries.

• Stability for Export: Utilizing Alu-Alu blister packaging is essential for this combination, as Paracetamol and Caffeine can be sensitive to moisture. This ensures a 36-month shelf life for export to Zone IVb regions.

• Dossier Support: We provide full CTD/eCTD Dossiers to support your firm’s registration in international health tenders where multidimensional pain relief is a priority.
