&#8211; Paracetamol uses, dose and side effects"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p>500 mg&nbsp;film-coated tablets<br>paracetamol<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WHAT PANODIL IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Panodil contains&nbsp;paracetamol&nbsp;which is analgesic and antipyretic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Panodil is used to treat temporary fever and pain of a mild nature,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>eg fever with cold, headache, toothache, menstrual pain, muscle, and joint pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Panodil is used for aches and pains of various kinds (eg headache, toothache, menstrual pain, muscle, and joint pain, and rheumatic pain) and fever (eg for colds).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Panodil can be used by people with sensitive stomachs or&nbsp;ulcers&nbsp;and people with an increased tendency to bleed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">BEFORE YOU USE PANODIL<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do not use Panodil<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>if you are allergic to&nbsp;paracetamol&nbsp;or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Take special care with Panodil<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>caution in liver disease<\/li><li>if you have&nbsp;asthma&nbsp;and are at the same time sensitive to&nbsp;acetylsalicylic acid<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not use Panodil without a doctor&#8217;s\u00a0prescription\u00a0if you have alcohol problems or liver damage, and do not use Panodil with alcohol.\u00a0The intoxicating effect of alcohol does not increase with the addition of Panodil.\u00a0If you are taking other painkillers that contain\u00a0paracetamol, do not use Panodil without first talking to your doctor or pharmacist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Never take Panodil more than what is stated in the dosing instructions or what your doctor has prescribed.\u00a0<em>Higher\u00a0doses\u00a0than those recommended do not provide better pain relief but instead entail a risk of very serious liver damage.\u00a0<\/em>The symptoms of liver damage usually come only after a few days.\u00a0Therefore, you must contact a doctor as soon as possible if you have taken too large a\u00a0dose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk to your doctor before using Panodil if you have liver or kidney disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk to your doctor before using Panodil if you have a serious\u00a0infection\u00a0such as sepsis, as this may increase the risk of metabolic\u00a0acidosis.\u00a0Signs of metabolic\u00a0acidosis\u00a0include deep, rapid, strained breathing;\u00a0nausea, vomiting;\u00a0loss of appetite.\u00a0Contact a doctor immediately if you get a combination of these symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use of other medicines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines, including medicines obtained without a prescription, (traditional) herbal medicines, herbal medicines, or other natural products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Panodil may affect or be affected by certain medicines \/ herbal medicines:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>metoclopramide (antiemetic and antiemetic).<\/li><li>warfarin\u00a0(blood thinner).\u00a0Contact your treating physician if you take more than 2 Panodil (500 mg) per day for 5 consecutive days.\u00a0There is a risk that the effect of\u00a0warfarin will\u00a0be affected.<\/li><li>probenecid (anti-gout\u00a0).<\/li><li>certain remedies for epilepsy:<ul><li>phenytoin<\/li><li>phenobarbital<\/li><li>carbamazepine<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>rifampicin (remedy for\u00a0tuberculosis\u00a0).<\/li><li>cholestyramine (means for high blood fats).\u00a0The medication should be taken at least one hour apart.<\/li><li>chloramphenicol for\u00a0injection\u00a0(means for bacterial infections).\u00a0(However, chloramphenicol against\u00a0infection\u00a0in your eye and Panodil can be used at the same time.)<\/li><li>St. John&#8217;s wort extract (included in some (traditional) herbal and herbal remedies).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Never use several different painkillers at the same time without consulting a doctor or pharmacist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pregnancy and breastfeeding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If necessary, Panodil can be used during pregnancy.\u00a0However, you should use the lowest possible\u00a0dose\u00a0that relieves your pain and\/or fever and use the medicine for the shortest possible time.\u00a0Contact a doctor or midwife if the pain and\/or fever do not decrease or if you need to take the medicine more often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Transfers to breast milk, but is unlikely to affect breastfed infants.\u00a0However, consult a physician if you use Panodil more than temporarily during breastfeeding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Driving and using machines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Panodil does not affect your ability to drive or use machines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">HOW TO USE PANODIL<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Note!&nbsp;Higher&nbsp;doses&nbsp;than those recommended carry a risk of very serious liver damage.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor has told you.&nbsp;Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The recommended&nbsp;dose&nbsp;is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Adults and children over 40 kg (over 12 years):<\/em>&nbsp;1-2 tablets every 4-6 hours, maximum 8 tablets per day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Panodil should not be used for long-term use other than as\u00a0prescribed\u00a0by a doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Children<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For children,\u00a0dose\u00a0one should primarily be calculated according to the child&#8217;s weight (10-15 mg\/kg body weight).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Children 15-25 kg (3-7 years):<\/em>&nbsp;\u00bd tablet every 4-6 hours, maximum 4 times per day, maximum 2 tablets per day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Children 25-40 kg (7-12 years):<\/em>&nbsp;\u00bd -1 tablet every 4-6 hours, maximum 4 times a day, maximum 4 tablets per day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(For calculation of\u00a0dose\u00a0based on the child&#8217;s weight, 10-15 mg\/kg body weight applies, every 4-6 hours, no more than 4 times per day.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The tablet can be divided into two equal\u00a0doses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Panodil tablets are provided with a film coating that becomes slippery on contact with saliva and thus makes it easier to swallow the tablet, while at the same time hiding the characteristic taste of\u00a0paracetamol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you use more Panodil than you should&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have ingested too much medicine or if e.g.\u00a0If a child has inadvertently ingested a medicine, contact a doctor or hospital for risk assessment and advice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>There is a risk of liver damage even if you feel well.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To prevent possible liver damage, the antidote must be inserted by a doctor as early as possible (preferably within 10-12 hours after ingestion).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any further questions on the use of this product, ask your doctor or pharmacist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Like all medicines, Panodil can cause\u00a0side effects, although not everybody gets them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Rare<\/em>&nbsp;(affects less than 1 user in 1,000):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Angioedema: Stop taking Panodil and contact a doctor immediately if you get
