Drug Interactions
Do not use this product together with sympathomimetic agents (e.g., Epinephrine, etc.) and general anesthetics (e.g., Halothane, etc.) because of the possibility for increased toxicity.
Concurrent administration with medicines for depression (e.g., Amitriptyline, Imipramine, Sertraline, Moclobemide, etc.) may result in hypertensive crisis (sudden, severe increase in blood pressure that can lead to stroke).
Medicines which stimulate the enzymes responsible for the metabolic activation of Paracetamol such as medicines for convulsion (e.g., Phenobarbital, etc.) may increase susceptibility to the harmful effects to the liver.
Tell the doctor about other medicines the patient is taking, especially other medicines for cough, cold, allergy, pain, or fever.
Decolgen Forte: The absorption of Paracetamol may be accelerated by Metoclopramide or Domperidone and reduced by Cholestyramine.
Warfarin, a blood thinning medicine: an increase in the International Normalized Ratio (INR), which may serve as a sign of increased risk for bleeding, may be observed when using paracetamol and warfarin at the same time. Paracetamol increases the anticoagulation effect of warfarin.
No-Drowse Decolgen: Combined use of phenylpropanolamine and caffeine may produce an additive increase in blood pressure. Severe, life threatening, and occasionally fatal hypertensive reactions have been reported.
