What is acetaminophen best used for?

Answer by  annie52foof (1459)

Tylenol or the generic for tylenol, acetaminophen is most commonly used for head ache pain, and body pains in general. It is a good drug to have if you are pregnant because there is very little a woman who is pregnant can take for pain while carrying a baby. It is not an antiinflammatory. It will not reduce swelling pain.
