    They both have different chemicals, one is stronger than the other. For  more information ask a pharmacist.

    Umbriel, good to know paracetamol's effects on the liver.  This drug is sold over the counter everywhere in Thailand.  They call it "Pala" for short.  I will think twice the next time I want to take it.

    Apparently, if you take a half-dose of each. it is more effective than a full dose of either.


    Personally, I find 250mg aspirin works well, but avoid if you have stomach problems.
