How MEPARA-650 Works
Paracetamol produces pain-relieving and fever-reducing effects mainly through its action within the central nervous system. As a result, it can reduce the perception of pain and help bring down an elevated body temperature.
However, paracetamol does not have the same anti-inflammatory effect as medicines belonging to the NSAID group.
Common Side Effects of Paracetamol
Paracetamol usually causes few side effects when taken correctly. However, some people may experience:
- Nausea
- Stomach discomfort
- Skin rash
- Allergic reactions
Serious allergic or skin reactions are rare. Seek medical attention promptly if you develop facial or throat swelling, difficulty breathing, widespread rash, blistering or other severe skin symptoms.
Important Safety Information
Use MEPARA-650 exactly as directed by your doctor, pharmacist or the product label.
Do not take MEPARA-650 together with other medicines containing Paracetamol unless a healthcare professional confirms that the combined amount is appropriate. Many cold, flu and pain medicines can also contain paracetamol, so always check the active ingredients before taking another product. Taking too much paracetamol can cause serious liver damage.
Also, speak with a healthcare professional before using paracetamol if you have liver disease, regularly consume large amounts of alcohol, or take medicines such as warfarin.
Do not exceed the recommended dose. If you accidentally take more paracetamol than directed, seek medical advice promptly, even if you feel well, because liver damage may initially cause few or no symptoms.
If pain continues or becomes worse, or if fever persists, consult a healthcare professional rather than continuing self-treatment. Current product labeling advises medical review when pain or fever does not improve within the specified period.
For additional information, refer to the NHS guidance on Paracetamol for adults.
Dosage & Administration
The appropriate dose depends on the patient’s age, weight, health condition and the specific paracetamol formulation. Therefore, take MEPARA-650 only according to the prescribed dose or the directions provided on the product packaging.
Swallow the tablet with water. Paracetamol can generally be taken with or without food.
Do not take more than the recommended amount, and leave the required interval between doses. In addition, check other medicines carefully to make sure they do not contain Paracetamol.
For children or patients weighing less than 50 kg, a healthcare professional may recommend a different dose.
If you miss a dose, take it when remembered if appropriate, but do not take a double dose to compensate.
