Default Other Med Names

Tylenol is the brand name for acetaminephin. Advil, Nutrin and Motrin are brand names for ibuprofen. Aspirin is aspirin, but there are brand names for that, too--Bayer, Bufferin, and Excedrin contains aspirin. Aleve is the brand name for naproxen.

Maybe that helps answer your question...
