Zypol

Zypol is a pharmaceutical product containing 500 mg of paracetamol (acetaminophen), a small molecule analgesic and antipyretic. Developed and manufactured by Unimed Healthcare, a South African generic pharmaceutical company, Zypol is indicated for the treatment of mild to moderate pain and inflammation, as well as symptoms associated with the common cold and influenza. It functions primarily by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis within the central nervous system, which elevates the pain threshold and reduces fever. The medication is available as an over-the-counter (OTC) oral tablet, characterized as a flat, round, green tablet with a break line.
