Main Ingredient: Acetaminophen

Genebs is an antipyretic and analgesic medicine primarily used to reduce fever and to relieve minor aches and pain associated with common cold, flu, toothaches, arthritis, menstrual cramps, and other conditions. Genebs is most commonly used by people who are sensitive or allergic to aspirin. Although, Genebs is not effective against inflammation, compared to Aspirin or Ibuprofen, it is well tolerated by most people, including children and has few side effects.

Every year more than 800,000 people in the United States alone, die from the so-called "Tylenol poisoning" (Tylenol is a brand name of Acetaminophen), which is caused by taking more than recommended doses of Acetaminophen or by habitual or long term use.

Do not take Genebs if fever lasts for more than 3days and if pain gets worse or lasts for more than 10 days, unless advised by your physician.
