Description
Paracip 650 tablet is a commonly used painkiller medicine that helps reduce fever and relieve mild to moderate pain. It contains paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen, as its active ingredient. This medicine works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers in the body that are responsible for pain and fever. It also acts on the brain center that regulates body temperature, helping bring down high fever effectively.
Paracip 650 tablets are widely prescribed for conditions such as headaches, migraines, toothaches, muscle aches, joint pain, and fever due to infections. It is a safe and well-tolerated medicine when taken at the correct dose and for the recommended duration. Your doctor may suggest this medicine if you need quick and effective relief from fever and pain, especially when they interfere with your daily activities.
Other medicines that also contain paracetamol include Dolo 650mg tablet, Lanol Er 650mg tablet, P 650mg tablet, and Paracip 650mg tablet. Since all of these medicines contain the same active ingredient, they should not be taken together. Always follow your doctor’s instructions and avoid combining different brands of paracetamol to prevent an overdose.
Although side effects with Paracip 650 tablets are rare, some people may experience mild reactions, such as a skin rash, itching, or allergic symptoms. Most of these are temporary and disappear on their own. However, if you notice any severe or persistent reaction, seek medical advice immediately. Taking more than the prescribed dose or using it for a long duration may lead to serious liver problems.
You should always take Paracip 650 tablet with food to avoid stomach discomfort. Do not exceed more than four tablets in a day, and maintain a minimum gap of four to six hours between doses. If your fever or pain does not improve after using this medicine, consult your doctor for further evaluation. Following the prescribed dosage and being mindful of other medicines containing paracetamol ensures safe and effective use of Paracip 650.
