my feel la.. i think it is weaker than panadol even though the ingredients are the same, weighs the same too.

You can buy generic paracetamol from watsons or guardian, even shopee also have. Panadol brand is more expensive since it is under brand Glaxosmith iirc.

But some panadol have extra ingredient, like for fast acting or flu/cold. So depend on what you need.

Round ones are tablets. Just ask for Panadol or Paracetamol tablets. Don't know if the former still produce tablets these days.

My one from shopee looks identical. Last time still had 80% vouchers, dirt cheap.

If you are scared, go polyclinic or hospital retail pharmacy and ask for generic paracetamol.
