DHAMOL
PRESENTATION:
DHAMOL SUSPENSION : Paracetamol BP (fine
powder) 250 mg/5 ml
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Homogenous pink suspension with strawberry
flavour and sweet taste.
PHARMACOLOGY:
Paracetamol has analgesic and antipyretic
effects. It inhibits the prostaglandin synthesis
in the brain to relieve pains of moderate
intensity, such as headache, dysmenorrhoea,
pain in muscle and nerve disorders. It reduces
fever by a direct effect on the heat-regulating
centre to increase dissipation of body heat.
PHARMACOKINETIC:
It is rapidly and completely absorbed from
the G.I.T. and metabolised in the liver. The
hydroxylated metabolites are responsible for
methemoglobin formation and hepatotoxicity.
About 3% of the absorbed paracetamol is
excreted unchanged in the urine and about
80% in conjugated forms.
INDICATIONS:
For relief of fever and pain of moderate intensity
e.g. headache, dysmenorrhoea and toothache.
RECOMMENDED DOSAGE: ORALLY
Children:
Under 3 months
: 5-10 mg/kg of body weight
or on doctor’s advice
3 months - 1 year : 1.25 - 2.5 ml,
1 - 6 years
: 2.5 - 5 ml,
6 - 12 years
: 5 - 10 ml.
These doses may be given 4 to 6 hourly when
necessary. (Maximum: Not more than 4 doses
daily).
ADVERSE EFFECT/UNDESIRABLE
EFFECT:

skin rashes, angioedema, Stevens Johnson
Syndrome/Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis have
been reported.

rashes and allergic reactions occur occasionally.
