MECHANISM OF ACTION:
Paracetamol and Diclofenac work by the inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX). It works by affecting chemicals in the body called prostaglandins. Paracetamol blocks the production of prostaglandins, making the body less aware of the pain or injury. Cetirizine competes with histamine for binding at H1-receptor sites on the effector cell surface, resulting in suppression of histaminic edema, flare, and pruritus. It crosses the blood-brain barrier only slightly, reducing the sedative side-effect common with older antihistamines. Magnesium Trisilicate increases the pH of gastric juice via a neutralization reaction. It also precipitates colloidal silica, which can coat gastrointestinal mucosa conferring further protection.
