Paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen, is an analgesic and antipyretic medication that helps to slightly relieve pain and more so reduce fever. Paracetamol has a general effect on the whole body, by effecting the central nervous system. It helps to reduce fever, and pain, due to a reduction in the production of prostaglandins it causes in the hypothalamus of the brain. These prostaglandins block the “pain messengers” in the central nervous system, which are involved in feedback of fever and pain messages. It also affects the control of serotonergic pathways, which are also involved with carrying body sickness messages to the brain.
