• Aceclofenac belongs to BCS Class 2 drug (Biopharmaceutics Classification) because of its poor water solubility and good permeability.

It is important to note that there are some potential contraindications when taking Aceclofenac such as asthma symptoms including bronchospasm induced by any NSAID therapy including aceclofenac use due to its cross-reactivity with aspirin hypersensitivity reactions which can lead to more severe reactions such as anaphylaxis if taken without caution among other things like pregnancy which has been studied for any potential risks during fetal development but no studies have been done on human subjects yet, so it’s best avoided during pregnancy unless advised by your doctor along with being careful if you have existing kidney diseases because aceclofenac has been known to worsen existing kidney problems, although it’s still uncertain whether this effect can be attributed directly from usage itself, so please consult your doctor before taking any medication containing aceclofenac especially if you have pre-existing medical conditions like those mentioned above since they could interact negatively with the medication leading to adverse reactions that could potentially become serious health complications down the line if not treated properly so always make sure you discuss all medications including over-the-counter drugs thoroughly before ingesting anything especially when dealing with long term illnesses like those previously mentioned here today, thank you!
