Good for

Paracet is Norway's most frequently used non-prescription medicine. Its effects are fast and long-lasting - up to five hours. Paracet is used for most mild to moderate pain, such as headaches, muscle and joint pains, discomfort related to fever, influenza and colds, as well as menstruation pains and toothaches.

The main ingredient of Paracet is paracetamol, a medicine that is gentle on the stomach and therefore safer for people with stomach ulcers.
Paracet is the most frequently recommended pain relieving medicine for both children and pregnant women. No damaging effects on the foetus have been found. Paracet is available in formats that are suitable for children, such as mixtures, dissolving tablets, suppositories and effervescent tablets.

Side effects and safety precautions

Paracet contains paracetamol, a medicine that is particularly effective against pain and infection, but which can also cause serious liver damage in large doses. It is therefore important to follow the dosage guide and the doctor's instructions carefully. Please be aware that long-term use may increase the possibility of developing kidney damage.

Other rare side effects of Paracet are allergy-like reactions, as well as reduction in the number of white blood cells and platelets.

Paracet for children

Paracetamol preparations are recommended for use on children with pain or fever. In normal use there are very few side effects and children tolerate the medicine well. Pains that children may have include headache, toothache, "growing pains" and muscle pains. Pain relieving medicines, and first and foremost Paracet, are also effective on children.

Fever is a particularly common symptom among children. The main reason for giving children a fever-reducing agent is not to lower their body temperature but rather to help them feel better. To assess whether a child needs treatment, it is important to observe his or her general condition. A lack of energy and tiredness are usually more meaningful than the exact degree of feverishness. Medicines that reduce fever also offer pain relief, but for the fever itself the child does not need such medicines for body temperatures below 39 C. If the child has a fever, you must prevent them from becoming overheated. Lower the room temperature, remove their clothing if necessary and use a thin blanket instead of a duvet. The body’s needs for fluids increases during a fever, so give a child with a fever plenty to drink.

Remember to adjust the dosage of painkillers according to the child's body weight.
