Hello,

Although Aeknil is not a product of the US, I was able to locate some information on this pill. Its active ingredient is Paracetamol, also known as Acetaminophen in the US.

The classification of Paracetamol, and the terminology used to refer to it, can cause confusion. It is often classified as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), but Paracetamol has few anti-inflammatory effects in many tissues. However, Aspirin, Paracetamol and other NSAIDs all act by the same mechanism (inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis) and all show varying levels of analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and antiplatelet actions.

Please post back if you have any other questions or comments to add.
