TYLENOL (ACETAMINOPHEN)

Tylenol or generic Acetaminophen 325mg or 500mg is available over the counter for treating headaches, muscle/body aches and pains, fever, menstrual cramps, and toothaches. As a pain reliever, Tylenol raises your pain threshold so you are less likely to be bothered by minor aches and discomfort. To help reduce fevers, Tylenol acts on the heat-regulating center of your brain so your body temperature decreases when your temperature rises. The generic alternative is not manufactured by the company that makes the brand product.
