Ivcetamol Injection contains 'Paracetamol,' which is an analgesic (relieves pain) and an antipyretic (reduces fever). It prevents the formation of chemical messengers called prostaglandins, which cause pain and swelling at the injury sites. This process reduces the mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Ivcetamol Injection also affects an area of the brain that regulates body temperature known as the hypothalamic heat-regulating centre. Thus, it reduces fever.
