Adol 24 Tablets 500 ml

Description:

Adol 500 mg 24 caplets is an over-the-counter pain relief and fever-reducing medicine containing paracetamol (acetaminophen) as the active ingredient. It is commonly used in Egypt for the short-term management of mild to moderate pain and for reducing high temperature (fever) associated with common cold, flu, and other infections. Each caplet is film-coated for easier swallowing and precise dosing, making it suitable for adults and adolescents as directed by a healthcare professional.

Indications:

• Relief of mild to moderate pain such as headache, tension headache, migraine, toothache, and dental pain.
• Relief of musculoskeletal pain including backache, muscle pain, and joint pain.
• Reduction of fever associated with common cold, influenza, and other infections.
• Relief of pain and fever associated with sore throat and earache.
• Adjunctive treatment for pain in conditions such as acute gout (as part of a treatment plan prescribed by a doctor).
• Suitable as an analgesic and antipyretic when nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (nsaids) are not tolerated or contraindicated, under medical advice.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Paracetamol (acetaminophen) – 500 mg per caplet.
• Other excipients (inactive ingredients) – exact composition not available in the provided information.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Route of administration: Oral use only. Swallow the caplets with a sufficient amount of water. Do not chew.
• Adults and adolescents (12 years and above): Usually 1–2 caplets (500–1000 mg) every 4–6 hours as needed.
• Maximum daily dose: Do not exceed 8 caplets (4000 mg paracetamol) in 24 hours, including all other paracetamol-containing products.
• Children under 12 years: Use only on medical advice and with pediatric formulations specifically designed for children. Do not give adult strength caplets unless prescribed by a doctor.
• Can be taken with or without food. If stomach upset occurs, taking it with food or milk may help.
• Do not use for more than 3 days for fever or 5 days for pain without consulting a doctor.
• Avoid concurrent use with other medicines containing paracetamol to prevent overdose.

Clinical Benefits:

• Provides effective analgesic (pain-relieving) action by raising the pain threshold at the central nervous system level.
• Offers antipyretic (fever-reducing) effect by acting on the thermoregulatory center in the hypothalamus to lower elevated body temperature.
• Gentler on the stomach compared with many nsaids, as it has minimal peripheral inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis.
• Suitable for a wide range of common pains including headache, toothache, and muscle pain, supporting everyday comfort and functionality.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Do not use if you are allergic to paracetamol, acetaminophen, or any of the product’s components.
• Do not exceed the recommended dose; overdose of paracetamol may cause serious liver damage, which may require urgent medical attention.
• Use with extreme caution in patients with liver disease, chronic alcohol use, or severe kidney impairment; consult a doctor before use.
• Avoid taking with other products containing paracetamol (cold and flu combinations, painkillers, etc.) to prevent accidental overdose.
• Chronic excessive ingestion of alcohol potentiates the hepatotoxicity of paracetamol; avoid alcohol while using this medicine.
• Drug interactions: cholestyramine may reduce absorption of paracetamol; activated charcoal given immediately can reduce absorption; domperidone and metoclopramide may enhance absorption of paracetamol.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant or breastfeeding; paracetamol is generally considered safe when used at recommended doses, but medical advice is recommended.
• Discontinue use and seek medical advice if pain or fever persists or worsens, or if new symptoms appear.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
• Keep out of reach of children.

Side Effects:

• Generally well tolerated at recommended doses.
• Possible side effects include nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, or allergic reactions such as rash, itching, or urticaria.
• Rare but serious reactions may include liver dysfunction, jaundice, severe skin reactions, or blood disorders; these require immediate medical attention.
• Stop use and seek urgent medical help if you notice signs of allergic reaction (swelling of face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing) or symptoms of liver damage (loss of appetite, dark urine, yellowing of skin or eyes).
