Lots of medications have positive side effects, depending on the patient. I once got prescribed antidepressants specifically for their sleep-inducing effect (I did also have depression, but many antidepressants don't make you drowsy). Paracetamol is a painkiller and also lowers fever. etc.

    And don't get me started on zoloft.... At some point "stamina" becomes Sisyphean flesh slapping.

    You know I have heard paracetamol is a pain killer. I've taken it many times and not once has it done anything for pain. Now fever, that it affects.

    Pain drugs like paracetamol don't work at all in a significant number of people for pain. Taking an anti febrile is a really bad idea, basically an immune inhibitor.
