Painkillers

An analgesic drug, commonly referred to as a pain reliever or painkiller, is a member of the pharmacological category of medications utilized for the purpose of pain management. It should be noted that analgesics are distinct from anesthetics, which are intended to temporarily diminish or entirely eliminate sensation. While analgesia and anesthesia exhibit neurophysiological overlap, it is important to recognize that these are distinct concepts. Consequently, various drugs possess both analgesic and anesthetic properties.
