Paracetamol Centrofarm (Paracetamol)

Paracetamol works by inhibiting central cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX‑1 and COX‑2), which reduces the production of prostaglandins that mediate pain and fever. This central action provides analgesic and antipyretic effects while having minimal anti‑inflammatory activity in peripheral tissues.

The appropriate dose of Paracetamol Centrofarm is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the patient’s age, weight, and clinical condition. Adults typically receive up to 500 mg–1 g per dose, not exceeding 4 g per day, while pediatric dosing follows weight‑based recommendations.

Paracetamol is generally considered compatible with pregnancy and breastfeeding when used at the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration. However, pregnant or lactating individuals should consult their healthcare provider before starting therapy to confirm safety and appropriate dosing.

Paracetamol Centrofarm offers analgesic and antipyretic effects with a lower risk of gastrointestinal irritation compared with non‑steroidal anti‑inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Unlike NSAIDs, it has minimal anti‑inflammatory activity and a lower potential for platelet inhibition, making it suitable for patients who need pain relief without the bleeding risk associated with NSAIDs.

Paracetamol Centrofarm should be stored at ambient temperature, below 25 °C, in its original packaging to protect it from moisture and light. Keep the product out of reach of children and avoid storing in humid or excessively hot environments.

Paracetamol Centrofarm is administered orally. The tablet should be swallowed whole with water and can be taken with or without food. Patients should follow the dosage instructions provided by their healthcare professional and avoid crushing or chewing the tablet unless specifically advised.

The most serious risks include acute liver injury or failure, especially with overdose or chronic high‑dose use, and rare severe skin reactions such as Stevens‑Johnson syndrome. Patients should monitor for signs of liver dysfunction, such as jaundice or dark urine, and seek immediate medical attention if severe skin rash or allergic symptoms develop.

Paracetamol Centrofarm should be avoided by individuals with known hypersensitivity to paracetamol or any excipients in the tablet, patients with severe hepatic impairment, and those who regularly consume excessive alcohol. It should also be used with caution in patients taking other hepatotoxic medications, and pediatric use must follow weight‑based dosing guidelines.
