Analgesic means whatever you are talking about has pain relieving ability. It usually refers to a medicine of some sort, and not how strong it is or how long it will last. It just means it offers pain relief.

Very generally speaking, an analgesic is something that relieves pain. More specifically, analgesics are pain medications that relieve your pain without causing you to lose consciousness. Some examples of analgesics are Tylenol, Advil, narcotic pain relievers. Analgesics aren't medical conditions; they are used to help treat the pain from medical conditions.

An analgesic (known as a painkiller) is any member of the diverse group of drugs used to relieve pain.
It is not a medical condition, it is a drug or medicine given to reduce pain without resulting in loss of consciousness.
