analgesic
Significado: A drug or medicine used to relieve pain without causing loss of consciousness.
Analgesics range from mild over-the-counter options such as paracetamol and ibuprofen to stronger prescription opioids. The term can function as both a noun and an adjective. In medical contexts, it is often contrasted with anaesthetic, which causes numbness or unconsciousness rather than simply reducing pain.
