2 Paracetamol is used to treat many conditions such as headache, muscle aches, arthritis, backache, toothaches, colds, and fevers. It relieves pain in mild arthritis but has no effect on the underlying inflammation and swelling of the joint. Paracetamol may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide. Before taking paracetamol Do not use this medication if you are allergic to acetaminophen or paracetamol. Ask a doctor or pharmacist if it is safe for you to take paracetamol if you have: liver disease; or a history of alcoholism; It is not known whether paracetamol will harm an unborn baby.

Do not use paracetamol without telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby. PARACETAMOL USES Paracetamol is used to treat a number of problems. It is a weak painkiller, whose mode of action is not exactly understood. It is sometimes called acetaminophen. In general, this drug is used as required to relieve minor aches and pains and to reduce fever, and so is used for the relief of headaches, migraine,toothache, period pains, pain associated with rheumatism and symptoms associated with colds or influenza.
3 Benefits of taking this drug can include relief from pain and reduction of fever. Listed below are the typical uses of paracetamol: Taken as required for relief of mild-to-moderate pain or fever. HOW TO USE/TAKE How often do I take it? Take this medication (tablets) by mouth with a glass of water (dispersible tablets should first be dissolved in water) as required to relieve pain or fever. Paracetamol is also available as a suppository which should be taken rectally and in liquid form for injection into veins (intravenous or IV use). Use this medication for the duration of prescription in order to get the most benefit from it. Remember to use it at the same time each day - unless specifically told otherwise by your doctor. It may take some hours before the full benefit of this drug takes effect, depending on the dose given and the severity of the condition. Certain medical conditions may require different dosage instructions as directed by your doctor. What dose? Dosage is based on your age, gender, medical condition, response to therapy, and use of certain interacting medicines. Do I need to avoid anything? Avoid alcohol. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more details.
4 When can I stop? It is important to continue taking this medication even if you feel well, unless your doctor tells you to stop.

Very rarely: Blood disorders resulting in readiness to bruise or bleed (e.g. thrombocytopenia) or low numbers of white blood cells (leucopenia). If any of these persist or you consider them severe then inform your doctor or pharmacist. Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects.

Symptoms of a serious allergic reaction include: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat),dizziness, trouble breathing. This is not a complete list of possible side effects.

6 BREAST FEEDING Paracetamol is suitable to take if you are breastfeeding. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any doubts or questions about this.

PARACETAMOL INTERACTIONS Your doctor or pharmacist may already be aware of any possible drug interactions and may be monitoring you for them. Do not start, stop, or change the dosage of any medicine before checking with them first. This drug should not be used with the following medications because very serious, possibly fatal interactions may occur: any other preparations containing paracetamol, other medicines that thin the blood (e.g. warfarin). If you are currently using any of these medications, tell your doctor or pharmacist before starting paracetamol. Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist of all prescription and nonprescription/herbal products you may use, especially of: Chloramphenicol Metoclopramide Domperidone Cholestyramine Busulfan.
7 This information does not contain all possible interactions. Therefore, before using paracetamol, tell your doctor or pharmacist of all the products you use. PARACETAMOL OVERDOSE As little as g of paracetamol in 24 hours can cause severe liver damage which may not be apparent for 4-6 days. Feeling sick (nausea) and vomiting are frequently the only early signs of overdose and these symptoms often settle down after about 24 hours. Thereafter, abdominal pain and tenderness may occur, as may renal failure, brain damage and death. Despite a lack of significant early symptoms, patients should be referred to hospital urgently for immediate medical attention. If you think you, or someone you care for, might have accidentally taken more than the recommended dose of paracetamol or intentional overdose is suspected, contact your local hospital. MISSED DOSE If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is near the time of the next dose, skip the missed dose and resume your usual dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up. apollo asia Division APOLLO Pharmaceuticals API Manufacturer INDIA [P] Ltd. asia Division Mr.Vipin Saxena CEO Cellular: Cellular:
