Uphamol Fever & Headache 650 ( 10 Tablets )

For oral administration, the recommended adult dose of acetylcysteine is 140mg per kg of body weight every 4 hours for 17 doses. Each dose should be diluted to a 5% solution with cola, grape fruit juice, orange juice or water prior to administration because of its unpleasant odor and its irritating and sclerosing properties. Any dose vomited within 1 hour of administration must be repeated. If necessary, the antidote may be given via duodenal intubation. Plasma acetaminophen concentration should be determined and liver function test should be performed to ascertain the status of the patient. Renal and cardiac function should be monitored and appropriate therapy instituted if necessary.
