- Do not exceed the recommended daily dose of paracetamol (typically 4 g per day). - Avoid use in patients with known liver disease or impaired hepatic function. - Limit caffeine intake from other sources to reduce the risk of overstimulation. - Use caution in individuals with hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias, or anxiety disorders. - Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a healthcare professional before use. - Children should only use formulations specifically approved for their age and weight.

Claradol Cafeine may interact with other medicines, and awareness of these interactions can reduce adverse effects.

Avoid: - Alcohol or other hepatotoxic drugs (e.g., high‑dose ibuprofen) that increase liver load. - Other caffeine‑containing products (energy drinks, certain analgesics) to avoid excess stimulant effect.

Use with caution: - Anticoagulants such as warfarin, as paracetamol may affect bleeding risk. - Anticonvulsants (carbamazepine, phenytoin) that can alter paracetamol metabolism. - Certain antidepressants, especially MAO inhibitors, which may increase caffeine‑related side effects. - Diuretics or antihypertensive agents, because caffeine may counteract blood‑pressure control.
