About Centamol Syrup
Centamol Syrup is used in relieving pain and fever. Pain can be acute (temporary) or chronic (long-lasting). Fever is a high body temperature followed by shivering, headache, and, in severe cases, delirium.
Centamol Syrup contains Paracetamol, which works by blocking the production of a chemical messenger (prostaglandin) and encouraging heat loss (through sweating), which helps reset the hypothalamus thermostat.
Centamol Syrup may cause side effects such as abdominal pain, nausea or diarrhoea. If the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your paediatrician.
Centamol Syrup is intended for pediatric use only. Avoid giving Centamol Syrup to your child if she/he is allergic to it. Keep your doctor informed about your child’s health condition, medications, and medical history to rule out any side effects/interactions.
