Paraceta 500 (Paracetamol)

Paracetamol works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes in the central nervous system, which lowers the production of prostaglandins that signal pain and regulate body temperature. This central action reduces the perception of pain and helps reset the hypothalamic set‑point for fever.

The specific dose of Paraceta 500 is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the patient’s age, weight, and clinical condition. In practice, the total daily amount of paracetamol should not exceed 4 grams for most adults, but exact dosing must follow the prescriber’s instructions.

Safety data for paracetamol in pregnancy and lactation are limited, and the product does not have an established pregnancy category. Women who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding should consult their physician before using Paraceta 500 to weigh potential benefits against risks.

To place an order, submit an enquiry on the Paraceta 500 product page at gnhindia.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.

Paraceta 500 (paracetamol) provides analgesic and antipyretic effects without significant anti‑inflammatory activity, whereas ibuprofen is a non‑steroidal anti‑inflammatory drug (NSAID) that also reduces inflammation. Paracetamol is generally gentler on the stomach and does not affect platelet function, but ibuprofen may be preferred when inflammation is a major component of pain.

Paraceta 500 tablets should be stored at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C, in their original packaging to protect them from moisture and light. Keep the product out of reach of children and avoid storing in humid or excessively hot environments.

Paraceta 500 is taken orally with a glass of water. The tablet can be swallowed whole and may be taken with or without food, according to the prescriber’s guidance. Patients should follow the dosing schedule provided by their healthcare professional.

The most serious risks include severe liver injury, especially with overdose or chronic high‑dose use, and rare allergic reactions such as Stevens‑Johnson syndrome or anaphylaxis. Any signs of jaundice, unusual fatigue, rash, or swelling should prompt immediate medical evaluation.

Paraceta 500 should be avoided by individuals with known hypersensitivity to paracetamol, severe liver disease, or those who regularly consume excessive alcohol. It is also contraindicated in patients who are taking other paracetamol‑containing products that could lead to exceeding the maximum daily dose.
