Hi,
Dolo 60 is a paracetamol .
Your freind has taken 8 tab? its a over dose. Paracetamol is safest drugs a fever relever & NACID .Still in high doses it is poisonous (like any other drug).
- About 7 gms of paracetamol taken as a single dose / in a day turs toxic for the liver ( May lead to acute fulminant swelling or necrosis of lever having grave effect on health.
* You have taken 5.2 Gms at a time-still I advice you to consult a
Gastro-enterologist urgently,& take his advice .
* The dose may give gastric irritation,burning,nausea,vomitting,blood in vomitting. Pl give her Ice cold milk & take her to specialists for fdurther consultation according to severity of reaction.
Thank you.
