General Description
Phenacetin (or acetophenetidin) is a pain-relieving and fever-reducing drug which was widely used between its introduction in 1887 and the 1983 ban imposed by the FDA on its use in the United States. Its use has declined because of its adverse effects which include increased risk of certain cancers and kidney damage. It is metabolized as paracetamol (acetaminophen) which replaced it in some over-the-counter medications following the ban on phenacetin.
