2. What you need to know before taking Antidol CHILDREN

Do not takeAntidol CHILDREN

• If you are allergic to paracetamol or any of the other components of this medicine (listed in section 6).

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take this medicine.

• Do not take more than the recommended dose in section 3. How to take Antidol CHILDREN. A higher dose than indicated does not increase pain relief but can damage the liver. Symptoms of liver damage occur for the first time after a few days. If you have taken more paracetamol than indicated in this leaflet, it is important that you consult your doctor as soon as possible.
• The simultaneous use of this medicine with other medicines that contain paracetamol, such as flu and cold medicines, should be avoided, as high doses can lead to liver damage. Do not use more than one medicine that contains paracetamol without consulting your doctor.
• You should consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take this medicine.
• If you have kidney, liver, heart, or lung disease, and patients with anemia (decrease in hemoglobin levels in the blood, due to or not due to a decrease in red blood cells).
• If you have chronic malnutrition or dehydration.
• If you are being treated with any medicine for epilepsy, you should consult your doctor before taking this medicine, as when used at the same time, the efficacy of paracetamol is decreased and its hepatotoxicity is increased, especially in high-dose paracetamol treatments.
• If you are an asthmatic sensitive to acetylsalicylic acid.
• Chronic alcoholics should be cautious not to take more than 2 g of paracetamol in 24 hours.
• 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 have malnutrition, chronic alcoholism, or are also taking flucloxacillin (an antibiotic). A serious disease called metabolic acidosis (an anomaly in 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. Symptoms of metabolic acidosis may include: severe breathing difficulties with deep and rapid breathing, drowsiness, feeling of discomfort (nausea), and vomiting.

Children

Do not use in children with a weight below 25 kg (under 8 years old approximately) because it does not allow for dosing of doses lower than 1 sachet per intake (325 mg).

Other medicines and Antidol CHILDREN

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or may need to take any other medicine.

In particular, if you are using medicines that contain in their composition some of the following active ingredients, as it may be necessary to reduce the dose of some of them or interrupt treatment:

• Ethyl alcohol
• Oral anticoagulants (acenocoumarol, warfarin)
• Anticonvulsants (phenytoin, phenobarbital, methylphenobarbital, primidone)
• Isoniazid
• Rifampicin
• Lamotrigine
• Metoclopramide and domperidone (used to prevent nausea and vomiting)
• Probenecid
• Propranolol used in the treatment of high blood pressure and heart rhythm disorders
• Ion exchange resins (cholestyramine)

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking:

• Flucloxacillin (antibiotic), due to a serious risk of alteration of blood and fluids (called metabolic acidosis with high anion imbalance) that should be treated urgently (see section 2).

Interference with analytical tests:

If you are going to have any analytical test (including blood tests, urine tests, etc.), inform your doctor that you are taking this medicine, as it may alter the result of these tests. Paracetamol may alter the values of analytical determinations of uric acid and glucose.

Use of Antidol CHILDREN with food, drinks, and alcohol

The use of paracetamol in patients who habitually consume alcohol (3 or more alcoholic beverages per day) may cause liver damage.

Taking this medicine with food does not affect its efficacy.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine.

Paracetamol is excreted in breast milk, so breastfeeding women should consult their doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine.

In case of need, paracetamol can be used during pregnancy. You should use the lowest possible dose that reduces pain or fever and use it for the shortest possible time. Contact your doctor if the pain or fever does not decrease or if you need to take the medicine more frequently.

The influence of paracetamol on the ability to drive and use machines is null or insignificant.

• This medicine contains 15.35 mg of aspartame (E-951) in each sachet. Aspartame contains a source of phenylalanine that can be harmful in case of phenylketonuria (PKU), a rare genetic disease in which phenylalanine accumulates because the body is unable to eliminate it correctly.
• This medicine contains 73.6 mg of sodium (main component of table/cooking salt). This is equivalent to 3.68% of the maximum daily sodium intake recommended for an adult.
