What is "acetaminophen"?
Acetaminophen is a widely used medication for reducing pain and fever. It works by blocking the production of certain chemicals in the brain that cause pain and fever. Acetaminophen is often recommended for headaches, muscle aches, and menstrual cramps. It is generally considered safe when used as instructed, but excessive use can lead to liver damage, so it is important to follow dosage instructions carefully and avoid combining it with other medications containing acetaminophen without medical advice.
