Paracetamol acts as an analgesic and antipyretic across several common conditions.

Fever: reduces elevated body temperature. Headache: alleviates tension‑type and mild migraine pain. Musculoskeletal pain: eases aches associated with strains or over‑use. Dental pain: provides relief after tooth extraction or dental procedures. Cold symptoms: helps control fever and discomfort during upper respiratory infections.

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

Common Side Effects: - Nausea: mild stomach upset. - Rash: transient skin irritation. - Elevated liver enzymes: mild, reversible changes. - Headache: occasional rebound headache. - Dizziness: brief sensation of light‑headedness. - Abdominal discomfort: mild pain or cramping.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Hepatotoxicity: severe liver injury, especially with overdose. - Stevens‑Johnson syndrome: rare severe skin reaction. - Anaphylaxis: life‑threatening allergic response. - Blood dyscrasias: rare cases of agranulocytosis or thrombocytopenia. - Renal impairment: acute kidney injury in susceptible individuals. - Hypersensitivity reactions: including angioedema.

Paracetamol should be used with caution in specific situations.

Assess liver function: avoid use in patients with existing hepatic disease. Avoid alcohol: concurrent intake increases risk of liver injury. Use lowest effective dose: limit total daily intake to recommended maximum. Monitor in children: adjust dose by weight and avoid use in infants under 2 months. Do not exceed max daily dose: adhere to label limits to prevent toxicity. Store at ambient temperature: keep in original packaging, protect from moisture.

Paracetamol may interact with several medicines, requiring attention.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Warfarin: increased anticoagulant effect, risk of bleeding. - Carbamazepine: reduced analgesic efficacy. - Phenytoin: decreased therapeutic effect. - Isoniazid: heightened risk of hepatotoxicity. - Rifampicin: may lower plasma concentrations.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Alcohol: additive liver toxicity. - Oral contraceptives: possible reduction in efficacy. - Lithium: potential for altered lithium levels. - Phenobarbital: may decrease paracetamol effectiveness. - Antidepressants (e.g., SSRIs): monitor for rare bleeding tendencies.
