Fastdoz-RB Capsule SR is a combination medication containing Aceclofenac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), and Rabeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor. Aceclofenac effectively reduces pain, inflammation, and swelling caused by various musculoskeletal conditions, such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Rabeprazole works by reducing stomach acid production, preventing gastrointestinal side effects like ulcers, irritation, and acid reflux, which can be common with long-term NSAID use. This sustained-release formulation ensures long-lasting pain relief and stomach protection.
