Description:

Zulu Plus is a fixed-dose combination tablet containing aceclofenac and paracetamol used for relief of pain, inflammation and fever in acute painful conditions such as arthritis, musculoskeletal pain, dental pain, headache, sprains and strains. The combination works by reducing both inflammatory mediators and pain signals.

• Aceclofenac — 100 mg (a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug / NSAID)
• Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) — 325 mg or 500 mg (analgesic and antipyretic) depending on the specific brand variant of Zulu P.

Directions / Usage:

• Usually taken after food to reduce risk of gastric irritation.
