Paracetamol is used to manage pain and fever by acting on the central nervous system.

Fever: reduces elevated body temperature in infants and children. Mild to moderate pain: alleviates discomfort from common ailments such as teething or minor injuries. Post‑vaccination discomfort: helps lower fever and soreness after immunizations. Cold symptoms: eases headache and body aches associated with common colds.

Paracetamol is generally well tolerated, but adverse reactions can occur.

Common Side Effects: - Nausea: mild stomach upset that usually resolves without treatment. - Skin rash: occasional mild erythema or itching. - Elevated liver enzymes: transient increase detectable in blood tests.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis): difficulty breathing, swelling of face or throat. - Stevens‑Johnson syndrome: severe skin blistering and mucosal involvement. - Hepatotoxicity: potential liver injury with overdose or prolonged use.

When using Mexalen Baby, consider the following precautions to ensure safe administration.

Age limitation: Use only in children as directed by a healthcare professional; avoid use in infants under 2 months unless advised. Dosage accuracy: Measure each dose with the provided calibrated device to prevent dosing errors. Liver function: Avoid use in patients with known severe liver disease or impaired hepatic function. Concomitant medications: Do not combine with other paracetamol‑containing products to prevent overdose. Allergies: Discontinue if signs of hypersensitivity such as rash, swelling, or breathing difficulty appear.

Paracetamol may interact with certain medicines; awareness of these interactions helps minimize risk.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Warfarin: concurrent use may increase bleeding risk; monitor INR closely. - Carbamazepine: enzyme induction can reduce paracetamol efficacy.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Isoniazid: may increase risk of liver toxicity; assess liver function. - Alcohol: chronic intake can enhance hepatotoxic potential. - Phenytoin: may lower paracetamol plasma levels.
