Women's Health » Prescription Drugs 13 » PARACIP Acephen Acetaminophen is used to relieve mild to moderate pain from headaches muscle aches menstrual periods colds and sore throats toothaches backaches and reactions to vaccinations (shots) and to reduce fever. Acetaminophen may also be used to relieve the pain of osteoarthritis (arthritis caused by the breakdown of the lining of the joints). Acetaminophen is in a class of medications called analgesics (pain relievers) and antipyretics (fever reducers). It works by changing the way the body senses pain and by cooling the body.How should this medicine be used? Acetaminophen comes as a tablet chewable tablet capsule suspension or solution (liquid) drops (concentrated liquid) extended-release (long-acting) tablet and orally disintegrating tablet (tablet that dissolves quickly in the mouth) to take by mouth with or without food. Acetaminophen also comes as a suppository to use rectally. Acetaminophen is available without a prescription but your doctor may prescribe acetaminophen to treat certain conditions. Follow the directions on the package or prescription label carefully and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take acetaminophen exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than directed on the package label or prescribed by your doctor. Taking more than the recommended amount may cause damage to your liver.If you are giving acetaminophen to your child read the package label carefully to make sure that it is the right product for the age of the child. Do not give children acetaminophen products that are made for adults. Some products for adults and older children may contain too much acetaminophen for a younger child. Drops made for infants are more concentrated (much more medication in each drop) than liquids made for older children. Check the package label to find out how much medication the child needs. If you know how much your child weighs give the dose that matches that weight on the chart. If you don't know your child's weight give the dose that matches your child's age. Ask your child's doctor if you don't know how much medication to give your child.Acetaminophen comes in combination with other medications to treat cough and cold symptoms. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice on which product is best for your symptoms. Check nonprescription cough and cold product labels carefully before using two or more products at the same time. These products may contain the same active ingredient(s) and taking them together could cause you to receive an overdose. This is especially important if you will be giving cough and cold medications to a child.Swallow the extended-release tablets whole; do not split chew crush or dissolve them. Place the orally disintegrating tablet ('Meltaways') in your mouth and allow to dissolve or chew it before swallowing.Shake the suspension and drops well before each use to mix the medication evenly. Use the measuring cup provided by the manufacturer to measure each dose of the solution or suspension and use the dosing device provided to measure each dose of the drops. Use the dosing device to slowly release the drops directly into the child's mouth near the inner cheek. Do not mix the drops with baby formula.
