Warnings and precautions

- Do not take more than the recommended dose of medicine as stated in section 3. How to take Antidol.
- Avoid taking this medicine simultaneously with other medicines that contain paracetamol, such as flu and cold medicines, as high doses can lead to liver damage. Do not use more than one medicine that contains paracetamol without consulting your doctor.
- Chronic alcoholics should be cautious not to take more than 2 g/24 hours of paracetamol.
- Patient with kidney, liver, heart, or lung disease, and patients with anemia (decreased hemoglobin levels in the blood, due to or not due to a decrease in red blood cells), or those patients who suffer from chronic malnutrition or dehydration, should consult their doctor before taking this medicine.
- When being treated with any medicine for epilepsy, consult your doctor before taking this medicine, as the efficacy of paracetamol may be decreased and hepatotoxicity may be increased, especially with high doses of paracetamol.
- Asthmatic patients sensitive to acetylsalicylic acid should consult their doctor before taking this medicine.
- If you have severe diseases, such as severe kidney failure or sepsis (when bacteria and their toxins circulate in the blood, causing damage to organs), or if you suffer from malnutrition, chronic alcoholism, or are also taking flucloxacillin (an antibiotic). A serious disease called metabolic acidosis (an anomaly in the blood and fluids) has been reported in patients in these situations when paracetamol is used at regular doses for a prolonged period or when paracetamol is taken with flucloxacillin. The symptoms of metabolic acidosis may include: severe breathing difficulties with deep and rapid breathing, drowsiness, feeling of discomfort (nausea), and vomiting.

In children under 10-12 years, consult your doctor or pharmacist, as other presentations may be available with doses suitable for these patients.
Other medicines and Antidol
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have recently used, or might use any other medicine.
In particular, if you are using any of the following medicines, it may be necessary to modify the dose of some of them or interrupt treatment:
- Medicines to prevent blood clots: Oral anticoagulants (acenocoumarol, warfarin).
- Medicines to treat epilepsy: Antiepileptics (lamotrigine, phenytoin, or other hydantoins, phenobarbital, methylphenobarbital, primidone, carbamazepine).

- Medicines used to treat high blood pressure and heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias): Propranolol.
