Paracetamol Level 100 mg/ml Oral Solution EFG 60 ml

It is a medicine in the form of an oral suspension that is used to combat feverish symptoms and mild to moderate pain.

It comes in a convenient 60 ml bottle.

Specially formulated for use in children from 0 months to 10 years of age and weighing between 3 and 32 kg.

The ideal dose of Paracetamol Level is 60 mg/kg/day, at intervals of 6-4 hours, according to need and intensity of symptoms, following the guidelines indicated in the table below:

• Up to 4 kg (0 to 3 months): 0.6 ml (60 mg)
• Up to 7 kg (4 to 8 months): 1,0 ml (100 mg)
• Up to 8 kg (9 to 11 months): 1.2 ml (120 mg)
• Up to 10.5 kg (12-23 months): 1.6 ml (160 mg)
• Up to 13 kg (2 to 3 years): 2.0 ml (200 mg)
• Up to 18.5 kg (4 to 5 years): 2.8 ml (280 mg)
• Up to 24 kg (6 to 8 years): 3.6 ml (360 mg)
• Up to 32 kg (9 to 10 years): 4.8 ml (480 mg)

Thus, the appropriate dose would be 15 mg/kg every 6 hours or 10 mg/kg every 4 hours.

In children weighing less than 7 kg, suppositories should be considered if this route of administration is clinically feasible.

In children under 3 years of age, a doctor's prescription is recommended for the use of paracetamol.

• No problems have been reported in pregnant women, although a doctor should always be consulted before use.
• No problems have been reported in breast-feeding, although a doctor should always be consulted before use, as maximum concentrations of 10-15 microlitres/ml in milk 2 hours after ingestion have been found.
• A doctor should be consulted if you are taking medicines such as chloramphenicol, propranolol, probenecid, metoclopramide, domperidone, rifampicin, lamotrigine, isoniazid, among others, as the plasma levels of these or of paracetamol may be affected, increasing or decreasing, causing toxicity or shielding the effect relatively.
• In addition, it should not be mixed with ethyl alcohol, as it would be more hepatotoxic.
