1. What is PARACETAMOL SUN and what is it used for

This medication belongs to a group of medications called analgesics and antipyretics. It is indicated for the treatment of mild to moderate pain symptoms and fever.

2. BEFORE TAKING PARACETAMOL SUN

Do not take Paracetamol SUN:

- If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to paracetamol, propacetamol hydrochloride, or any of the other components of the medication (listed in section 6).

Warnings and Precautions:

Consult your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before starting to take Paracetamol SUN:

If you take more than the recommended dose in section 3.

In patients with asthma sensitive to acetylsalicylic acid, consult your doctor before taking this medication.

If you have kidney, heart, or lung disease, or have anemia (decrease in hemoglobin levels in the blood, due or not due to a decrease in red blood cells), consult your doctor before taking this medication.

When undergoing treatment with an epilepsy medication, consult your doctor before taking this medication, as when used together, it decreases the efficacy and increases the hepatotoxicity of paracetamol, especially in high-dose paracetamol treatments.

In chronic alcoholics, be careful not to take more than 4 tablets of 500 mg or 2 g per day of paracetamol.

  • If you have dehydration, underweight, or chronic malnutrition.
  • If you are taking warfarin or other oral anticoagulants.

If the pain persists for more than 5 days, the fever for more than 3 days, or if the pain or fever worsen or other symptoms appear, interrupt treatment and consult your doctor.

In children under 8 years, consult your doctor or pharmacist, as there are other presentations with doses adapted to this group of patients.

If you have severe diseases, such as severe renal insufficiency or sepsis (when bacteria and their toxins circulate in the blood, causing damage to organs), or if you have malnutrition, chronic alcoholism, or if you are also taking flucloxacillin (an antibiotic). A severe disease called metabolic acidosis (a blood and fluid anomaly) has been reported in patients in these situations when using paracetamol at regular doses for a prolonged period or when taking paracetamol with flucloxacillin. Symptoms of metabolic acidosis may include: severe respiratory difficulty with deep and rapid breathing, drowsiness, feeling unwell (nausea), and vomiting.

Use of other medications:

Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are using or have recently used:

- Flucloxacillin (antibiotic), due to a severe risk of blood and fluid anomaly (metabolic acidosis with high anionic imbalance) that must be treated urgently and may occur particularly in cases of severe renal insufficiency, sepsis (when bacteria and their toxins circulate in the blood, causing damage to organs), malnutrition, chronic alcoholism, and if maximum daily doses of paracetamol are used.

- Any other medication, including those purchased without a prescription.

Paracetamol may interact with the following medications:

- Blood clot prevention medication: Oral anticoagulants (acenocoumarol, warfarin)

- Epilepsy medications: Antiepileptics (lamotrigine, phenytoin, or other hydantoins, phenobarbital, methylphenobarbital, primidone, carbamazepine)

- Tuberculosis medications: (isoniazid, rifampicin)

- Depression and seizure medications: Barbiturates (used as hypnotics, sedatives, and anticonvulsants)

- Cholesterol-lowering medications: (colestiramine)

- Diuretics (furosemide group)

- Gout medications: (probencid and sulfinpyrazone)

- Nausea and vomiting prevention medications: Metoclopramide and domperidone

- High blood pressure and heart rhythm medications: Propranolol.

- Flucloxacillin (antibiotic), due to a severe risk of blood and fluid anomaly (metabolic acidosis) that must be treated urgently (see section 2)

Do not use with other pain relievers (medications that reduce pain) without consulting your doctor.

As a general rule for any medication, it is recommended to inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are being treated with another medication. In the case of oral anticoagulants, paracetamol may be administered occasionally as the preferred analgesic.

Interference with analytical tests:

If you are to undergo any analytical test (including blood, urine, skin tests using allergens, etc.), inform your doctor that you are taking this medication, as it may alter the results of these tests.

Paracetamol SUN with food and beverages:

The use of paracetamol in patients who regularly consume alcohol (three or more alcoholic beverages: beer, wine, liquor) may cause liver damage.

The taking of this medication with food does not affect its efficacy.

Pregnancy and lactation

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before using any medication.

If you are pregnant or believe you may be pregnant, consult your doctor before taking this medication. The consumption of medications during pregnancy can be hazardous to the embryo or fetus and should be monitored by your doctor.

In case of need, Paracetamol SUN may be used during pregnancy. 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 do not decrease or if you need to take the medication more frequently.

Small amounts of paracetamol may appear in breast milk, so it is recommended to consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking this medication during lactation.
