Paracetamol is a widely used drug which is usually safe if taken properly. Adult patients can take 500 to 1000 mg every 4 hours, not to exceed 4000 mg a day. Children from 6 to 12 years old can take between 250 to 500 mg every 4 hours, but no more than four doses per day. Children between 1 and 5 years old can take between 120 to 250 mg every 4 hours, but not more than 4 doses per day. Adults are cautioned not to drink large amounts of alcohol due to increased risk of liver damage. People with liver or kidney disease are advised to consult with their doctor before using this medication.
Paracetamol is soluble in water because it forms hydrogen bonds with water molecules. These hydrogen bonds allow for the paracetamol molecules to dissociate and mix well with water, allowing for the medication to dissolve easily when taken orally.
The antagonist of paracetamol is N-acetylcysteine, which is used as an antidote in cases of paracetamol overdose. N-acetylcysteine helps to replenish depleted glutathione levels in the liver, which is essential for detoxifying the metabolites of paracetamol.
