Acetominophen
is a drug which is
used as a painkiller. It is marketed under the trade name
Tylenol.
Unlike aspirin
and ibuprofen,
acetominophen is not an anti-inflammatory
drug. Therefore, it is often prescribed for patients who should
not take anti-inflammatory drugs (for example, people who
are taking anti-coagulant
medication to reduce risk of stroke).
