Acetaminophen (Paracetamol), also known as Panadol, when taken too much can cause liver damage, and can also lead to stomach and kidney related side effects.

If side effects occur, doctors will prescribe other drugs to reduce it. As long as you follow the instructions and ask the doctor if you have questions and concerns, the pain will be well managed and you will have less side effects. Read More
