🩺 Clinical
Acetaminophen is used to relieve mild to moderate pain and to reduce fever. Acetaminophen is in a class of medications called analgesics (pain relievers) and antipyretics (fever reducers). It works by changing the way the body senses pain and by cooling the body.
Read the full MedlinePlus article ↗Excedrin PM Triple Action is an over-the-counter coated tablet taken by mouth that combines three active ingredients. Acetaminophen and aspirin are commonly used to help reduce pain and fever, and aspirin also functions as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. Diphenhydramine citrate is an antihistamine typically included in nighttime pain products to promote drowsiness. This product is marketed under FDA's OTC monograph rules for pain-relief and sleep-aid combinations.
