About Paracetamol (Paracip):
Product Type: Pain Medicine
Brand name: Paracetamol
Generic name: Paracip
Common uses
For fever and pain relief.
Paracetamol is a medicine that is used for mild to moderate pain and fever in adults and children. Paracetamol is often used in people who cannot take anti-inflammatories (e.g. due to stomach ulcer) as it is gentle on the stomach.
Paracetamol is less likely than anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs) to cause worsening of asthma or an asthma attack.
For children paracetamol is the most commonly prescribed medicine to reduce a high temperature or for pain relief.
It works by blocking the making of prostaglandins (pros-ta-glan-dins) which can cause pain (including headaches) fever (high temperature) and inflammation (swelling and redness). Paracetamol is not very good at reducing inflammation but is very effective at reducing pain and fever. It is used both for acute pain (e.g. headache accident) and for chronic pain (e.g. osteo-arthritis). It is sometimes used for cancer pain.
Paracetamol is available in tablets capsules soluble tablets children's mixtures and suppositories.

Low Cost Prescription:
What are discount generic prescription drugs? If you ordered with the online drug store, for example generic viagra, do not be surprised to receive medications with a different name. Since generic are bioequivalent (made of the same active chemical elements) to branded pills, but just named differently. Popular and known drugs are manufactured by pharmaceutical companies-inventors, and generic are manufactured by other companies, after patent terms are out.
From a physician's point of view, generic drugs are better than branded prescription medications, for their chemical composition and way of taking are maximally well studied. Means generic drugs are more reliable and safe drugs. Accordingly, risks of eventual side effects are set up to the minimum for the manufacturer.
The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) controls the quality of all medications. Before allowing any manufacturer to start clinical tests generics or prescription medications must be registered at the FDA. More over pills can be on sale only they were approved. The methods of control used by the FDA are so strict that not more 1/5 of drugs are approved.
Who manufactures generic drugs? Make sure to first know who manufactures the prescription medications, you intend to purchase. For example, if the generic viagra, proposed by the online drug store, is manufactured in India, means it is a quality and good generic. It is known that India — is the biggest and reliable manufacturer of generics. Large parts of generics are made in India. Among them we can name drugs for depression, prescription diet pills, sleeping pills, blood pressure medication, birth control pills, pain medication, slimming pills, asthma medication, impotence medication, stop smoking medication, arthritis medication and many other pills.
How much high quality prescription drugs and generics cost? Be aware of purchasing too cheap prescription drugs. Keep in mind the fact that no one will sell regardless of the profits! That's why any reliable online drug store will never sell quality medication at the same prices it purchases pills from manufacturers. Thus more the online drug store, whose prices for drugs are closed to the prices proposed by other stores. If you find a site where prices are considerably lower than usual — do not hurry to purchase. More probably, you do will receive poor quality prescription medications and do will loose your money.
However show attention when purchasing generic and not branded pills! Thus manufacturing and advertising generics is substantially less expensive than doing the same with branded pills, that's why generics are always cheaper! A generic can cost 10, 20 or even 50 times lower than its equivalent branded drug. That's why prices for one generic must be compared only to the prices for another generic, and to the ones for branded pills. If you find on an online drug store generic at a quite lower price than on other stores — make the choice in favor of the usual, common price which justifies itself.
Prescription Medication News. Health professionals have been advised that patients who are prescribed anti-psychotic drugs are the least likely to pick up their medicine.
Figures provided by the NHS Information Centre for England show that of all the anti-psychotic drugs prescribed by clinicians, only 85.1% of them are picked up by the patient.
This compares with 98.5% of other drugs that are prescribed. The data, from 145 GP practices and covering the period between 2004 and 2008, shows that the overall collection figure also dropped from 99.6% in 2005 to 98.5% in 2008.
