Description
Ingredients & concentrations: Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) 500 mg
How to use: 1-2 tablets after meals every 4-6 hours, maximum 4 times per day
Precautions: Acetaminophen overdose may be manifested by renal tubular necrosis, hypoglycemic coma, and thrombocytopenia.
Sometimes, liver necrosis can occur as well as liver failure.
Death and the requirement of a liver transplant may also occur.
Metabolism by the CYP2E1 pathway releases a toxic acetaminophen metabolite known as N-acetyl-p-benzoquinoneimine(NAPQI).
The toxic effects caused by this drug are attributed to NAPQI, not acetaminophen alone.
