Acetaminophen "I rate it 5. I've had a very high fever, and after taking Paracetamol, it only made it worse. That is why they suggested me to take Paracetamol every 4 hours. As a result, my fever is now gone, but my stomach is suffering. I currently have stomach/intestinal disturbances due to Paracetamol. This medicine is 50:50."

Acetaminophen "Great if you have a fever. But if you need pain relief, this won't help. I found it does work better if you have a cup of coffee with it. Otherwise, see your doctor for real pain relief. Never take more than the recommended dosage. It can destroy your liver."

"My son has had a low-grade fever for three days. I've had him on Tylenol every 4 hours but decided to try Motrin instead during his regular dosing schedule. It didn't do a thing. His fever kept rising. Tylenol is the only thing that has worked for him."

Acetaminophen "This is great. I've had a small pain in my head when I woke up this morning and decided to ignore it. It started getting worse, and I realized I was developing a fever around 5:00 PM. Even though I had the help of my younger sister to try and reduce the fever and headache, it just hasn't gone away entirely. I was unable to figure out a way to reduce the pain I was in, so I called my mother and told her the pain I was in. Conveniently enough, my mother mentioned that we did have Tylenol at home. I went to the room that she told me I'd find it in. I found the Tylenol and downed a pill with water. In just a minute or two, the pain has basically completely vanished, and my fever has been reduced greatly."

Acetaminophen "Pain: not very effective. No side effects, easy to use. Fever: definitely a 10. Always helps. This got a high rating due to the fever reducing."
