Skeptical of anybody who calls it Paracetamol.

What do you call it?

Tylenol, acetaminophen in the US.

It’s paracetamol everywhere else.

Whoah.

So, never heard of those. But DDG tells me Tylenol is just a brand—talk about an effective monopoly.

Advil is ibuprofen and Aleve is naproxen. They tend to get the same brand treatment as Band-Aids and Vaseline in the US.

Can you buy naproxen without a prescription over there? I thought you generally needed to pair it with something like omeprazole and the general public can’t be trusted to read instructions
