World's Most Common Pain Relief Drug May Induce Risky Behavior, Research Suggests
▫️The Most Commonly Taken Analgesic Worldwide - And One of The Most Consumed Drugs in The US - Could Be Doing A Lot More Than Just Pain Relief.
▫️Acetaminophen, Also Known As Paracetamol And Sold Widely Under The Brand Names Tylenol And Panadol, May Also Increase Risk-Taking, According to Research From 2020 That Measured Changes in People's Behavior When Under The Influence of The Medication.
▫️The Findings Add to A Growing Body of Research Suggesting That Acetaminophen's Effects On Pain Reduction Also Extend to Various Psychological Processes, Lowering People's Receptivity to Hurt Feelings, Experiencing Reduced Empathy, And Even Blunting Cognitive Functions.
▫️The Findings Were Reported in Social Cognitive And Affective Neuroscience.

Aspirin Use May Help Unmask Early Asymptomatic Bladder Cancer
▫️The presence of blood cells in urine is a sign of bladder cancer. Because aspirin blocks platelets from forming harmful blood clots, the medication can cause mild bleeding or worsen existing bleeding in the urinary tract.
▫️Results from a study in the Journal of Internal Medicine suggest that this may prompt a clinician to run tests that uncover an asymptomatic bladder tumor.
