Paramol T P Indications/Uses

Analgesic and antipyretic.
Injection: PARAMOL is indicated to relieve mild to moderate pain and reduce fever. It provides symptomatic relief only; additional therapy to treat the cause of the pain or fever should be instituted when necessary. It has minimal anti-inflammatory activity and does not relieve redness, swelling, or stiffness due to arthritis; it cannot be used in place of aspirin or other salicylates or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. However, it may be used to relieve pain due to mild osteoarthritis.
PARAMOL may be used when aspirin therapy is contraindicated or inadvisable, i.e., in patients receiving anticoagulants or uricosuric agents, patients with hemophilia or other bleeding problems, and those with upper gastrointestinal disease or intolerance or hypersensitivity to aspirin. However, chronic, high-dose paracetamol therapy may require adjustment of anticoagulant dosage based on increased monitoring of prothrombin time in patients receiving a coumarin or indandione-derivative anticoagulant.
