acetaminophen and Parasitemia

acetaminophen has been researched along with Parasitemia in 5 studies

Acetaminophen: Analgesic antipyretic derivative of acetanilide. It has weak anti-inflammatory properties and is used as a common analgesic, but may cause liver, blood cell, and kidney damage.
paracetamol : A member of the class of phenols that is 4-aminophenol in which one of the hydrogens attached to the amino group has been replaced by an acetyl group.

Parasitemia: The presence of parasites (especially malarial parasites) in the blood. (Dorland, 27th ed)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"We have previously shown that both chloroquine and paracetamol (acetaminophen) have antipyretic activity during treatment of acute uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria in children 1-4 years old."3.73Relationship between antipyretic effects and cytokine levels in uncomplicated falciparum malaria during different treatment regimes. ( Björkman, A; Hugosson, E; Montgomery, SM; Premji, Z; Troye-Blomberg, M, 2006)
"Pentoxifylline (POF) may suppress overproduction of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha), which is thought to contribute to complications of human falciparum malaria."2.68Supportive pentoxifylline in falciparum malaria: no effect on tumor necrosis factor alpha levels or clinical outcome: a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled study.
