Acetaminophen is the generic name of a drug found in many common brand name OTC products such as Tylenol, as well as prescription products such as Vicodin and Percocet.
Acetaminophen is an important drug, and its effectiveness in relieving pain and fever is widely known.
Acetaminophen belongs to a class of drugs called analgesics (pain relievers) and antipyretics (fever reducers)
The FDA approved acetaminophen in 1951.
Aetominophen is generally considered safe when used according to the directions on its labeling. But taking more than the recommended amount can cause liver damage, ranging from abnormalities in liver function blood tests, to acute liver failure, and even death.
Medicines containing acetaminophen are available in many forms, including drops, syrups, capsules, and pills.
You might see acetaminophen abbreviated as “APAP” on prescription medicines.
Never take more than one medicine that contains acetaminophen. Check the active ingredients of all your medicines to make sure you are taking no more than one medicine containing acetaminophen at a time.
