Alvedon is one of the most well-known over-the-counter pain relief brands in Sweden, primarily used for treating temporary pain and fever. The brand has a deep history in the Swedish pharmaceutical market, having been established mid-20th century as a household name for paracetamol-based medication.

The brand was originally developed and owned by the Swedish pharmaceutical company Astra (later AstraZeneca) before changing hands through various corporate sales and mergers. Today, Alvedon is part of the consumer healthcare portfolio managed by Haleon, a dedicated consumer healthcare giant that was spun off from GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) in 2022. While the brand is quintessentially Swedish in origin and market presence, the manufacturing of these effervescent tablets often occurs across Haleon's international network of pharmaceutical production facilities in Europe to meet regional demand.
