[edit] Advil and Tylenol

Hi - question. Many people seem to say that either Advil reduces fever and Tylenol doesn't, or vice versa (I don't remember which they say but their point is that one does so, the other doesn't). However from some quick searching it seems to me that both serve this function. Perhaps one does so more effectively (I saw such a statement in some BMJ article abstract), but in any case, does anyone know?

[edit] your body

in the first phrase of the article, "Antipyretic drugs are drugs that lower your body temperature from a raised state." i think that the article should say lowers the body temperature or reduces the temperature of the body, something like that, to take out the sentence "your body".
