The exact mechanism of action of paracetamol is still unknown, however it is thought to be a COX (cyclo-oxygenase) enzyme inhibitor. By preventing this enzyme from making inflammatory chemicals, it may reduce pain.

Paracetamol decreases fever, inflammation and pain. It is similar to acetaminophen (Tylenol) in its effects. Paracetamol is sold in Europe, whereas acetaminophen is sold in the U.S.
