acetaminophen

All medications have both common (generic) and brand names. The brand name is the name under which a specific manufacturer markets a product (e.g., Tylenol®). The common name is the standard name of the medicine (e.g., acetaminophen). The label on your medicine will state the brand name, common name, or both. It will also give important dosage information.

Please choose the brand name of the medication that you would like to read about.
