It is a derivative of acetaminophen, or paracetamol, with the molecular formula glycine, N, N-diethyl-,4-(acetylamino)phenyl ester. Propacetamol is a parenteral formulation of paracetamol and thus, it is a prodrug that is completely hydrolyzed to paracetamol. It is not available in the United States but this prodrug has been widely used in other countries such as France since 1985.
