Abstract:
Acetaminophen, known as paracetamol in the UK and Tylenol in the United States, is a widespread and commonly used painkiller all over the world. Taken in large enough doses, however, it can cause fatal liver damage. In the U.S., 56000 people are admitted to hospital each year due to acetaminophen overdose and its related effects, at great cost to healthcare services. In this thesis we present a number of different models of acetaminophen metabolism and toxicity. Previously, models of acetaminophen toxicity have been complex and due to this complexity, do not lend themselves well to more advanc

Abstract:
Paracetamol is a potent analgesic and antipyretic with limited side effects compared to the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and opiates. Worldwide paracetamol is commonly used to treat pain and fever in both children and adults. Although, this drug has been in clinical use for more than a century, the mechanisms of action are not fully understood. Historically some of the actions of paracetamol were attributed to the inhibition of central cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) enzymes however given the weak inhibitory effects on COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, alternative targets have been su

Abstract:
The crystal size distribution (CSD) of any material determines its end use. Consequently, comminution processes are used to transform material from one size distribution to another. Often, recrystallization from solution is one of the processes used. Recently, a novel recrystallization process named the GAS process was developed to mill compounds that were thermally labile and insoluble in supercritical fluids. CSD could be manipulated using this process. To further illustrate the applicability of this process, size manipulation studies of acetaminophen (a widely available drug) were performed

Due to the detrimental side effects of NSAID administration, such as gastrointestinal ulceration and renal papillary necrosis, there is a profound need for clinical pain relief in horses with long term orthopedic disease whereby gastrointestinal side effects are obviated. Acetaminophen is one of the most commonly used analgesic drugs in humans, and is readily available as an inexpensive generic over-the-counter preparation. Acetaminophen has a number of mechanisms of action that differ from NSAIDs, including actions on the serotonergic, opioid, endocannabinoid and lipoxygenase pathways. These

Autism is a lifelong neurodevelopmental disorder. The etiology of autism still remains unclear due to the heterogeneous and complex nature of the disorder, however synergistic actions between genetic components and environmental factors have been suggested. Acetaminophen (APAP) is one of the most popular over-the-counter drugs that possess antipyretic and analgesic effects. It is considered a relatively safe and effective within therapeutic doses. Recently, early exposure to APAP has been suggested to be one of the underlying cause of autism. Children are often prescribed APAP to lessen fever
