Paracetamol Suppository

Description

Paracetamol Suppository helps ease pain and bring down high body temperature (fever). It works by blocking certain chemical messengers in the brain that increase the body’s temperature and cause pain. It is usually only given to children who are unable to take oral forms of this medicine.

Paracetamol Suppository is for rectal use only and should never be taken by mouth. Encourage your child to empty the bowel before inserting the medicine as that will enhance the absorption of the medicine. Also, ask your child to slow down and avoid moving around a lot at least for an hour after placing the medicine. The dose will depend upon your child’s age, body weight, and severity of the infection, so stick to the dose, duration, and way prescribed by your child’s doctor. If your child passes stool within 30 minutes of inserting Neomol 80 Anal Suppository, you will have to insert it again.

Do not give your child Neomol 80 Anal Suppository along with other medicines (many cold and flu medicines and other painkillers) that contain paracetamol, as this may result in overdosing and cause dangerous side effects such as hepatotoxicity (liver damage). Always check the ingredients of any other medicine before giving them to your child in combination with this medicine. Also, do not stop giving the medicine abruptly even if your child starts to feel better. Doing so may bring back the symptoms or worsen the condition.

Generally, this medicine is well-tolerated by the children. However, temporary side effects such as anal irritation, nausea, vomiting, and constipation may occur in some children. Consult your doctor in case these episodes become bothersome for your child.

This medicine is often considered safe and effective but may not be suitable for everybody. Inform your doctor if your child is undergoing treatment for any blood-related disorder, is allergic to any medicinal compound, or has any birth defects, liver impairment, or kidney dysfunction. This will help your child’s doctor evaluate the dose and suitability of this medicine in a better way.
