Possible Side Effects

• Like all medicines, Paracetamol Suspension can cause side effects although not everybody gets them.
• Tell your doctor as soon as possible if you notice any of these:
• allergic reactions including swelling of face, tongue or throat, difficulty swallowing, unexplained wheezing, shortness of breath
• which may be accompanied by skin rash or hives.
• becoming unusually tired, unexpected bruising or bleeding and getting more infections (such as colds) than usual.
• These are rare effects in people taking paracetamol. Very rare cases of serious skin reactions have been reported.
• If your child shows any of these signs, stop giving paracetamol and talk to a doctor.
• Long term use: people who use medicines containing paracetamol every day for a long time (several months or more) could get certain
