In health, these two medications are the most common and of greater free sale. While they seem similar, they are very different and are used for different symptoms.
If there is talk of health, ibuprofen and paracetamol are two different drugs that do not work the same. The first is an analgesic that takes away the pain but is also anti -inflammatory. The second is also an analgesic, that is, it takes away the pain and it is antipyretic serves to lower the fever.
People take paracetamol when they have headaches, bruises, teeth aches, sunburn and fever. This drug works directly with nerves and receptors in the brain to relieve pain, it is more effective for headaches. It is safe for children and adults if taken correctly, and there are minimal side effects.

The differences between the two
Ibuprofen operates in 30 minutes, the paracetamol has no effect until 45 to 60 minutes after the first dose, pain and fever have elapsed only for four hours instead of six. It does not have the same anti -inflammatory properties as ibuprofen, so it is less effective in reducing pain associated with inflammation and body injury. Its excessive consumption can be harmful to the liver so it should not be used in people with liver problems.
What to take in each case?
If I am playing football, I hit myself and I have inflamed my knee, better to take the ibuprofen because I have inflammation for a blow, however for the flu the paracetamol is more recommended. The flu is a disease that occurs in the coldest times of the year.
