13.
Because serious liver injury has been reported with acetaminophen overdose, it should be used strictly as directed. If abnormal hepatic biochemical parameters or clinical manifestations that may be related to liver injury such as general malaise, loss of appetite, anorexia, nausea, epigastric distention and pain, yellow urine, yellow eyes and yellow skin staining are observed during the use of the drug, the drug should be discontinued immediately and medical attention should be sought.
If an overdose occurs, there is a risk of serious liver effects and liver failure. Symptoms may not appear until 3 days later, and N-acetylcysteine or oral methionine is hepatoprotective if given intravenously or orally within 10 to 12 hours after an overdose, as prescribed by a physician. When an overdose is followed by treatment as soon as possible in either adults or children, even if there are no symptoms.
14. People who are alcoholics or taking barbiturates, anorexic, underweight, and malnourished may be more sensitive to acetaminophen toxicity and may need to avoid this product or reduce the dosage, so consult your physician before use.
15. Consult your physician before use in patients with severe infections because of the increased risk of metabolic acidosis. If signs or symptoms of metabolic acidosis such as deepening or accelerated breathing, dyspnea, nausea, vomiting, or loss of appetite occur, seek immediate medical attention.
16. When rash or other signs of allergic reactions occur, such as itching or rash after drug administration, especially erythema and erosion of the mouth, eyes, and external genitalia, discontinue the drug immediately and consult a physician.
