Pain Relief

Pain relief (analgesia) is the reduction or elimination of pain. There are many different types of pain relief medicines available from 24HR Pharmacy.

Over-the-counter pain relievers are the most common type of analgesic medicine. These are available without a prescription and are typically used to treat mild to moderate pain. The two main over-the-counter pain relievers are paracetamol and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatorydrugs (NSAIDs).

– Paracetamol is a safe and effective pain reliever that can be used to treat a variety of pain, including headaches, muscle aches, and can also reduce fevers and discomforts associated with colds and the flu.

– NSAIDs relieve pain and can also reduce inflammation. NSAIDs can cause side effects such as stomach upset and bleeding, so they should be used with caution
