Patient Information Leaflet

Opioids have a serious risk of addiction, especially with long-term use. For more information click here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/opioid-medicines-and-the-risk-of-addiction

Treatment of mild to moderate pain, antipyretic:

Paramol Tablets (Pack of 32) combines dihydrocodeine with paracetamol to offer targeted pain relief. It is used for the relief of:

Headaches
Migraines
Feverish conditions
Period pains
Toothache and other dental pain
Muscular aches and pains including back pain

This medicine contains dihydrocodeine, which can cause addiction if you take it continuously for more than 3 days. This can give you withdrawal symptoms when you stop taking it. If you take a painkiller for headaches for more than 3 days, it can make them worse.

Who should not take Paramol:

Children under 12 years of age.
People with very slow, shallow breathing (respiratory depression).
People having an asthma attack.
People with chronic obstructive airways disease.
People with a head injury or raised pressure inside the skull (raised intracranial pressure).
People who have or who are at risk of getting a blockage in the gut (paralytic ileus).

Paramol tablets should not be used if you are allergic to any of their ingredients. If you feel you have experienced an allergic reaction, stop taking Paramol and inform your doctor or pharmacist immediately.

New drug drive legislation comes into force from 2 March 2015 in England and Wales. As long as you are following the advice of a healthcare professional and your driving isn’t impaired, you can continue to drive as usual and aren’t at risk of arrest.

It may be an offence to drive while taking dihydrocodeine. If experiencing any side effects such as double vision, drowsiness, or feeling dizzy, do not drive.

Adults and children over 12 years: One or two tablets every four to six hours, with or after food. Do not exceed a maximum of eight tablets in 24 hours.
