Abstract

Acetaminophen is a commonly used pain reliever and fever reducer, but excessive intake can harm various organs, including the stomach. While previous research has primarily focused on liver and kidney toxicity, little is known about its effects on stomach histology, particularly under food restriction. This study investigates how acetaminophen impacts stomach tissue in albino rats under varying levels of food availability
