Yes, paracetamol is the medical name for N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetamide, so it does contain an amide group.

What functional groups are in paracetamol?

Acetazolamide contains a weakly acidic sulphonamide group, SO2NH2 as well as what is considered a peptide link, CONH but is named as an amide functional group. These groups are joined to a cyclic 5-membered ring, containing 2 Nitrogens doubly bonded to carbons in the ring (azomethine?) and a Sulfur member.

Why is LDA lithium diisopropylamide referred to as an amide when it is obviously just a deprotonated amine?

In chemistry, an amide is usually an organic compound that contains the functional group consisting of an acyl group (R-C=O) linked to a nitrogen atom (N). The term refers both to a class of compounds and a functional group within those compounds. The term amide also refers to deprotonated form of ammonia (NH3) or an amine, often represented as anions R2N-. The remainder of this article is about the carbonyl-nitrogen sense of amide. For discussion of these "anionic amides," see the articles sodium amide and LDA.
