Dolo-650 is a pill made up of paracetamol. Paracetamol is considered effective in reducing fever and reducing pain. However, if this medicine is taken repeatedly without doctor’s advice or without need, it can be dangerous to health. According to guidelines from the United Kingdom’s National Health Service (NHS), adults should not take more than one or two 500 mg tablets at a time. Also avoid taking more than 8 paracetamol tablets in 24 hours. Consuming more than this limit can cause serious side effects.

An overdose of paracetamol can cause various side effects on the body. Symptoms include skin rash, body itching, throat swelling, difficulty breathing, nausea or restlessness. Sometimes these symptoms do not appear immediately, but the drug gradually affects the body from the inside, especially the liver. Liver is a very important organ in the body and overdose of paracetamol can cause serious damage to it. Early symptoms of liver damage are often overlooked. Sudden weight loss, loss of appetite, persistent fatigue, yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice-like symptoms) may be signs of liver failure. If not treated in time, the condition can be life-threatening.

Many people do not read the ingredients while taking medicine, this is the biggest mistake. Many medicines for colds, coughs, fever or pain already contain paracetamol. Taking a different Dolo-650 at this time increases the chance of inadvertent overdose. So it is very important to avoid taking many medicines containing paracetamol at the same time. Therefore, if you have a mild fever or body ache, instead of taking medicine immediately, take some rest, drink enough water and eat a balanced diet. If the pain increases or lasts for a long time, it is advisable to consult a doctor. Medicine is a temporary solution; It is important for everyone to remember that its excess can be hazardous to health.
