    Is this actually any better than the super cheap no brand paracetamol? I thought it was all chemically the same and the extras are just marketing.

    The edges are a little smoother.

    Insane waste of money, look at this study funded by GSK https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9719709 (owners of Panadol). Summary: buy the cheapest paracetamol (not Panadol, paracetamol) available if that medication suits your needs after consultation with a medical professional. Paracetamol is great for reducing fever and for those with stomach sensitivity and young children, choose a NSAID if you require anti-inflammatory assistance.

    • I would generally agree with you but $2 is a decent enough deal. Plus the cheap ones taste like bitter baby powder even if you gulp it down quickly.

      Agreed.

      How did you reach that summary / conclusion from the linked study?

      The findings revealed that the panel of GPs and endocrinologists in this study would prefer a product that provided faster disintegration, absorption, and pain relief with limited side-effects. The panel found FD-APAP to be relevant and useful in patients with delayed gastric emptying, wherein, pain in the elderly and those with diabetes could be managed effectively.

      • your quote doesn't seem to go against what he said at all?

          They prefer faster disintegration, absorption, and pain relief - as in a product like Panadol Optizorb, as opposed to the cheapest non-branded paracetamol which has none of those features?
