Tylenol
Common pain reliever
Tylenol is a brand name for acetaminophen, a common over-the-counter pain reliever and fever reducer.
Unlike aspirin or ibuprofen, it doesn't reduce inflammation.
Take some Tylenol for that headache.
The name has become nearly generic in American English for any acetaminophen product.
