Overview Pafenil 250mg Tablet DT

Paracetamol 250mg Delayed-Release Tablets are frequently used to alleviate pain and reduce high fever. In children, they're effective for headaches, toothaches, body aches, fever, and the common cold. Administer orally, ideally at the same time daily. While it can be taken with or without food, post-meal administration is preferred to minimize potential stomach upset. Dosage and treatment duration are determined by your child's age, weight, and illness severity; strictly follow your doctor's instructions. If vomiting occurs within 30 minutes, allow your child to settle and repeat the dose. Do not repeat the dose if vomiting happens after 30 minutes. Avoid combining Paracetamol 250mg Delayed-Release Tablets with other paracetamol-containing medications (including many cold, flu, and pain remedies) to prevent overdose and potentially serious side effects like liver damage. Always review the ingredients of all medications before administering them concurrently. Generally well-tolerated, some children may experience temporary side effects including indigestion, nausea, vomiting, and sleep disturbances. Consult your doctor if these effects become problematic. This medication, while generally safe and effective, may not be appropriate for all children. Inform your doctor if your child has a blood disorder, medication allergies, birth defects, liver or kidney problems, or is receiving other treatments. This information aids in determining appropriate dosage and suitability.
