Correct Answer: Antipyretics
Solution : The correct option is Antipyretics.
Antipyretics are substances that are used to lower the temperature in people who have a high fever. Antipyretic drugs are used to decrease body temperature and lessen fever. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicines (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen (Advil) and aspirin are common antipyretics. These drugs function by lowering the body's temperature when it is raised due to fever by working on the body's thermostat in the brain (the hypothalamus).
