✔️ Pharmacology

Paracetamol is analgesic and antipyretic with just a little anti-inflammatory effect. Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) is considered to work largely in the central nervous system (CNS), raising the pain threshold by blocking both isoforms of the cyclooxygenase enzymes COX-1, COX-2, and COX-3, which are involved in prostaglandin (PG) production. Paracetamol is a para aminophenol derivative that possesses analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory effects. One of the most commonly used, safest, and fastest-acting analgesics is paracetamol. It is well tolerated and devoid of aspirin's numerous adverse effects.
