Warnings and Precautions
Contains paracetamol. Do not use with any other paracetamol-containing products. The concomitant use with other products containing paracetamol may lead to an overdose.
Contains caffeine. Avoid excessive intake of caffeine containing drinks (eg. tea, coffee etc.) when taking this medicine.
Paracetamol overdose may cause liver failure which can lead to liver transplant or death.
Underlying liver disease increases the risk of paracetamol related liver damage. Patients who have been diagnosed with liver or kidney impairment must seek medical advice before taking this medication.
Cases of hepatic dysfunction/failure have been reported in patients with depleted glutathione levels, such as those who are severely malnourished, anorexic, have a low body mass index or are chronic heavy users of alcohol.
In patients with glutathione depleted states such as sepsis, the use of paracetamol may increase the risk of metabolic acidosis.
If symptoms persist, medical advice must be sought.
Keep out of sight and reach of children.
If cold and flu symptoms persist for longer than 7 days , medical advice should be sought.
Overdose
Paracetamol
Sign & Symptoms - Paracetamol overdose may cause liver failure which can lead to liver transplant or death. Acute pancreatitis has been observed, usually with hepatic dysfunction and liver toxicity.
Treatment – Immediate medical management is required in the event of overdose, even if symptoms of overdose are not present.
Administration of N-acetylcysteine or methionine may be required.
Caffeine
Symptoms and Signs - Overdose of caffeine may result in epigastric pain, vomiting, diuresis, tachycardia or cardiac arrhythmia, CNS stimulation (insomnia, restlessness, excitement, agitation, jitteriness, tremors and convulsions).
It must be noted that for clinically significant symptoms of caffeine overdose to occur with this product, the amount ingested would be associated with serious paracetamol-related liver toxicity.
Treatment - No specific antidote is available, but supportive measures such as beta adrenceptor antagonists to reverse the cardiotoxic effects may be used.
Drug Interactions
The anticoagulant effect of warfarin and other coumarins may be enhanced by prolonged regular daily use of paracetamol with increased risk of bleeding; occasional doses have no significant effect.
Contraindications
This product is contraindicated in patients with a previous history of hypersensitivity to paracetamol, caffeine or excipients.
Pregnancy
Paracetamol
Studies have not identified any risk of paracetamol in pregnancy or embryo-foetal development.
Caffeine
Paracetamol-caffeine is not recommended for use during pregnancy due to the possible increased risk of spontaneous abortion associated with caffeine consumption.
Lactation
Paracetamol
Human studies with paracetamol have not identified any risk to lactation or the breast-fed offspring.
Paracetamol crosses the placental barrier and is excreted in breast milk.
Caffeine
Caffeine in breast milk may potentially have a stimulating effect on breast fed infants but significant toxicity has not been observed.
Adverse events
Paracetamol
Thrombocytopaenia, Anaphylaxis cutaneous hypersensitivity reactions including amoung others skin rashes, angiodema, stevens johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrosis, bronchospasm in patients sensitive to aspirin and other NSAIDs, hepatic dysfuction.
