• Do not take more than the recommended dose in section 3. How to take Dololavi.

• Patient with liver, kidney, heart, or lung disease, and patients with anemia (should consult their doctor before taking this medicine.

If the pain persists for more than 5 days, the fever for more than 3 days, or the pain or fever worsen or other symptoms appear, consult your doctor and reassess the clinical situation.

During treatment with Dololavi, inform your doctor immediately if:

If you have severe diseases, such as severe renal 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 severe 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 unwell (nausea) and vomiting.
