Important information

This product may cause drowsiness.
If you are affected do not drive or operate machinery and avoid alcoholic drinks.

Please be aware that Medinite contains paracetamol. Do not take with other paracetamol-containing products. This product contains sodium benzoate which is a mild irritant to the skin, eyes and mucous membrane. It also contains glycerol which can cause stomach upsets and diarrhoea if taken in high doses.

Most people experience no side effects after taking this medicine but, as with all medicines, it may not suit everyone. There may occasionally be side effects. If you notice anything unusual or experience any unexpected side effects, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.

Very rarely with medicines containing paracetamol, there have been reports of blood disorders or pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas). These effects, however, may not have been caused by the paracetamol.

Any side effects should go away once you stop taking the medicine.
