Use in Lactation:
Paracetamol is excreted in breast milk. The amount available for ingestion by the infant has been reported variously as less than 0.1% of a single dose of Paracetamol 500 mg and 0.04 to 0.23% of a single 650 mg dose. These results are based on immediate release preparations of Paracetamol. There is no data available on the excretion of sustained release Paracetamol preparations in breast milk.
However, it is not expected that Paracetamol 665 mg extended release tablet would provide any increase in the excretion of Paracetamol in breast milk as this product is designed to maintain rather than increase plasma Paracetamol concentrations compared to immediate release preparations. Maternal ingestion of Paracetamol in usual analgesic doses does not appear to present a risk to the breastfed infant.

Use in Children:
Not recommended for children under 12 years of age.

Drug Interactions:
Anticoagulant dosage may require reduction if Paracetamol medication is prolonged. Paracetamol absorption from immediate release preparations is increased by drugs which increase gastric emptying, eg metoclopramide and decreased by drugs which decrease gastric emptying, eg propantheline, antidepressants with anticholinergic properties and narcotic analgesics.

However, concurrent administration of metoclopramide may reduce the absorption of Paracetamol from this sustained release dosage form, as it accelerates gastric emptying and intestinal transit. Paracetamol may increase chloramphenicol concentrations. The likelihood of Paracetamol toxicity may be increased by the concomitant use of enzyme inducing agents such as alcohol or anticonvulsant drugs.

Storage Condition:
Store below 30° C in a dry place. Keep out of the reach of children.

Commercial Packs:
