  • Description

    Paracetamol is a popular over-the-counter painkiller (analgesic) and antipyretic (fever reducer). Its primary mechanism of action involves inhibiting the production of cyclooxygenases (COX), the enzymes that produce pain transmitters in the brain. By limiting the availability of these pain transmitters, Paracetamol helps alleviate discomfort. Interestingly, it also enhances the effectiveness of glucocorticoids, hormones that regulate the body's response to stress and inflammation.

  • In case of Overdose

    An overdose of Paracetamol may lead to adverse effects such as liver damage, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, blurred vision, itching, rash, sweating, seizures, and coma. In the case of an overdose, it is essential to induce vomiting and administer activated charcoal, proton-pump inhibitors to reduce absorption of paracetamol. Management may also include the use of N-acetylcysteine to prevent or attenuate liver injury. Some patients may present with hypoglycaemia, and supplemental glucose may be required. However, it is important to note that prevention is crucial in mitigating the risks associated with paracetamol overdose. Therefore, measures such as restricted access, proper medication storage, and adherence to recommended doses should be taken. If you suspect you have had an overdose of paracetamol, please consult a doctor or visit the emergency room immediately, as delay may cause permanent organ damage.

  • Missed Dose

    It is crucial to adhere to your medication schedule and take paracetamol as prescribed by your healthcare provider. If you miss a dose, you can take it as soon as you remember, but if it's almost time for the next scheduled dose, it's best to skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not take an extra dose to make up for the missed one, as overdosing on paracetamol can be harmful. If you are uncertain about whether you should take a missed dose, it's essential to consult your doctor or pharmacist for guidance. They can provide personalized advice based on your medical history and the specific medication you are taking.
