In stockThis is a medicine. Information on precautions for use (drug interactions, contraindications, special warnings, adverse reactions...) and dosage are detailed in the summary of product characteristics.
In accordance with current regulations, any suspected adverse effect of a medication must be reported: Een bijwerking melden. .
For children and adolescents, it is essential to follow the dosages based on the patient’s weight and, therefore, to choose an appropriate dosage form. The approximate ages based on weight are provided for guidance only.
The maximum daily dose of acetaminophen is 60 mg/kg/day, to be divided into 4 or 6 doses throughout the day.
For adults and adolescents weighing more than 50 kg, the usual daily dose is 3,000 mg of acetaminophen per day, or 6 packets. However, in cases of more severe pain, the maximum dose may be increased to 4,000 mg per day—equivalent to 8 packets per day—only under medical supervision. A higher dose will not provide additional pain relief but may have serious consequences for your liver.
Warning: To avoid the risk of overdose, check that other medications—including over-the-counter ones—do not contain acetaminophen. Do not exceed the recommended maximum doses. Exceeding the recommended dose can damage the liver. This medication is not contraindicated during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Read the package insert before use.
