Do not take Xumadol

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

Warnings and Precautions

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

During treatment with Xumadol, inform your doctor immediately:

  • If you are an asthmatic patient sensitive to acetylsalicylic acid.
  • If you have any liver, kidney, heart, or lung disease, or if you have anemia (decreased hemoglobin level in the blood, due to or not due to a decrease in red blood cells).
  • If you have chronic malnutrition or are dehydrated.
  • If you are being treated with any medicine for epilepsy, as the efficacy of paracetamol may be decreased and hepatotoxicity may be increased when used at the same time, especially with high doses of paracetamol.
  • In chronic alcoholics, caution should be exercised not to take more than 2 tablets of 1g of paracetamol in 24 hours.
  • If the pain persists for more than 5 days, the fever for more than 3 days, or if the pain or fever worsens or other symptoms appear, you should consult your doctor and reassess the clinical situation.
  • 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 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 respiratory distress with deep and rapid breathing, drowsiness, feeling of discomfort (nausea) and vomiting.

You should consult your doctor to use it in children under 15 years or in treatments for more than 10 days.

Interference with Laboratory Tests:
