Paracetamol (250mg/5ml)

Overview Febrex 250mg/5ml Suspension

Paracetamol 250mg/5ml oral suspension is a frequently used medication to alleviate pain and reduce high fever. In pediatric patients, it addresses symptoms such as headaches, toothaches, body aches, fever, and the common cold. Administer this suspension orally, ideally at consistent intervals daily. While it can be given with or without food, post-meal administration is preferred to minimize potential stomach irritation. Dosage and treatment duration are determined by your child's age, weight, and the infection's severity; strictly adhere to your doctor's prescribed regimen. If vomiting occurs within 30 minutes of ingestion, allow your child to settle and repeat the dose. Avoid re-administration if vomiting happens after 30 minutes. Do not combine this medication with other paracetamol-containing products (including many cold, flu, and pain remedies) to prevent overdose and potential serious side effects like liver damage (hepatotoxicity). Always review the ingredients of any concurrent medication. Generally well-tolerated, temporary side effects like upset stomach, nausea, or vomiting may rarely occur. Consult your physician if these persist. While usually safe and effective, this medication may not be appropriate for all children. Disclose any existing blood disorders, drug allergies, birth defects, liver problems, or kidney conditions to your child's doctor to ensure safe and effective use.
