What is Paracetamol used for?
Paracetamol is an analgesic and antipyretic that acts on the central nervous system to relieve pain and lower temperature.
- Headache: provides relief from mild to moderate tension‑type headaches. - Fever: reduces elevated body temperature in febrile illnesses. - Musculoskeletal pain: eases discomfort from muscle aches, back pain and minor joint pain. - Dental pain: alleviates pain associated with toothaches and dental procedures. - Cold symptoms: helps control headache and fever that accompany common colds.
What are the side effects of Paracetamol?
Paracetamol is generally well tolerated, but adverse reactions can occur.
Common Side Effects: - Nausea: mild stomach upset may be experienced. - Skin rash: occasional mild dermatologic reactions. - Elevated liver enzymes: transient increase detectable in blood tests.
Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Hepatotoxicity: risk of liver injury, especially with overdose. - Stevens‑Johnson syndrome: rare severe skin reaction. - Anaphylaxis: extremely rare allergic response. - Blood disorders: rare cases of thrombocytopenia or neutropenia.
What precautions apply to Paracetamol?
Paracetamol should be used with awareness of potential risks and specific patient factors.
- Dose adjustment: reduce dose in patients with hepatic impairment. - Alcohol use: avoid excessive alcohol as it increases liver toxicity risk. - Pregnancy: limit use to the lowest effective dose and shortest duration. - Concomitant medications: review all other products containing paracetamol to prevent accidental overdose. - Age considerations: adjust dosing for children according to weight‑based guidelines. - Store below 25°C: keep in the original packaging, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.
What does Paracetamol interact with?
Paracetamol may interact with several medicines, requiring monitoring or avoidance.
Major Interactions (Avoid): - Warfarin: may enhance anticoagulant effect and increase bleeding risk.
Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Isoniazid: can increase risk of liver toxicity. - Antiepileptic drugs (e.g., carbamazepine, phenytoin): may reduce paracetamol clearance. - Alcohol: combined use raises hepatotoxic potential. - HIV protease inhibitors: may alter paracetamol metabolism. - Rifampicin: may increase hepatic metabolism leading to reduced efficacy.
