| Seems logical. I simply wasn't thinking of "comprimido." Clearly, I should have. Thank you. |

comprimidos = tablets
El paracetamol (DCI) o acetaminofén (acetaminofeno) es un fármaco con propiedades analgésicas, sin propiedades antiinflamatorias clínicamente significativas. Actúa inhibiendo la síntesis de prostaglandinas, mediadores celulares responsables de la aparición del dolor. Además, tiene efectos antipiréticos. Se presenta habitualmente en forma de cápsulas, comprimidos, supositorios o gotas de administración oral.

: I was convinced it meant 'comprimido' but wasn't 100% sure of the English equivalent, although I thought it was probably 'tablet'!
