Acetaminophen, aspirin, ibuprofen and naproxen are the four types of over-the-counter medication used to treat pain. It has been determined that some medications are more effective at treating specific types of pain than others. For example, acetaminophen is typically used to treat headaches, fever and general aches and painsbut not swellingwhile the others can be more effective in treating inflammation. However, a new Australian study has found that one of these drugs is more effective at treating everything, at least accordion to its results. Read on to find out what it isand to ensure your health and the health of others, dont miss these Signs Your Illness is Actually Coronavirus in Disguise. 1 Acetaminophen is Ineffective at Treating Certain Kinds of Pain, Says Study According to a review published in the Medical Journal of Australia, paracetamol (acetaminophen) is ineffective in reducing pain for many of the conditions it is used for. As part of the study University of Sydney researchers looked at the efficacy and safety of paracetamol for pain relief in treating 44 conditions, ranging from dental work to headaches. They found while it was effective in treating some of them, for others it fared the same as a placeboincluding lower back pain. While paracetamol is widely used, its efficacy in relieving pain has been established for only a handful of conditions, and its benefits are often modest, the study said. Keep reading to see what it is good, and less good, for. 2 Acetaminophen Is Effective in Treating These Conditions, Says Study High or moderate-quality evidence that paracetamol (typically 0.51g, single or multiple doses) is superior to placebo for relieving pain was available for only four of 44 painful conditions examined, researchers concluded. According to their findings, there was evidence it was effective in treating pain associated with knee and hip osteoarthritis, craniotomy, tension headache, and perineal pain (pain in the pelvic area). There was also moderate-quality evidence of efficacy in treating women with early postpartum perineal pain and relieving pain in people with episodic tensiontype headache.

Evidence for its efficacy in four conditions was moderate to strong, and there is strong evidence that paracetamol is not effective for reducing acute low back pain. Investigations that evaluate more typical dosing regimens are required, researchers concluded. 4 What the Doctor Says About Acetaminophen Tylenol, a brand name for acetaminophen, is one of the most common over-the-counter drugs in the world, and you may be wondering what taking Tylenol every day does to your body.
