How It Works

Emzor Paracetamol works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes in the brain, reducing prostaglandin production responsible for pain and fever. Unlike NSAIDs, it has minimal effect on peripheral prostaglandins, making it gentler on the stomach and suitable for people with gastrointestinal sensitivities.
