To read this article, one would think that paracetamol is useless. Poor article. 2A00:23C8:9FF6:DC01:2147:38EA:4881:5694 (talk) 21:51, 29 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
I noted the PARACETAMOL - descriptor - minor comment - I am sure TYLENOL is the far bigger brand name - and I'm a Brit.
Agree with others - given how much paracetamol/tylenol is in use - the article almost seems dismissive. BeingObjective (talk) 20:15, 2 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
Page currently refers to Paracetamol's Scheduling in Australia as "Rx Only" Since this is not a term used by the TGA to describe drug Scheduling, I believe it should be changed to say S4/S3/S2/Unscheduled. Kalebz456 (talk) 05:46, 30 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
Shouldn't this article be titled "Acetaminophen" instead of "Paracetemol", given that this is the generic name for the substance in the United States (as well as Canada), as it notes? Of course, this depends on who the English edition of Wikipedia is for, but the number of English speakers in the United States is larger than that in the United Kingdom. Of course, Paracetemol should still redirect to it. Quadibloc (talk) 21:27, 6 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
