Children: There is no clinical date on the use of Aceclofenac in children Elderly: The pharmacokinetics of Aceclofenac are not altered in elderly patients, Therefore it is not considered necessary to modify the dose and dose frequency.

Renal insufficiency: There is no evidence that the dosage of Aceclofenac needs to be modified in patients with mild renal impairment. Hepatic insufficiency: The dose of Aceclofenac should be reduced in patients with hepatic impairment. An initial daily dose of 100 mg should be administered.
