MECHANISM OF ACTION 
 

Rabeprazole:- Rabeprazole works by stopping a special pump in the stomach cells called the proton pump. This pump is responsible for making stomach acid. By stopping this pump, Rabeprazole prevents the stomach from making too much acid. This helps reduce acid in the stomach, which can ease problems like heartburn and stomach ulcers. It also helps the lining of the stomach and esophagus to heal. 

Aceclofenac:- Aceclofenac works by stopping an enzyme called cyclooxygenase (COX). This enzyme helps the body make substances called prostaglandins, which are involved in causing pain, swelling, and fever. By stopping COX, Aceclofenac reduces the amount of prostaglandins in the body. This helps to ease pain and swelling in conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other problems with the muscles and bones.
