Mechanism of Action
Paracetamol, the active ingredient in Amicitron Plus, acts centrally to inhibit the production of prostaglandins in the brain, which are involved in the regulation of pain and fever.
Pharmacological Properties
Paracetamol exhibits analgesic (pain-relieving) and antipyretic (fever-reducing) properties by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins in the central nervous system.
Indications for Use
Amicitron Plus is indicated for the relief of mild to moderate pain such as headache, toothache, muscle aches, and for the reduction of fever.

Side Effects
Common side effects of paracetamol may include nausea, vomiting, and allergic reactions. In rare cases, it may cause liver damage. Discontinue use and seek medical attention if you experience any adverse effects.
Usage Instructions
The recommended dosage for adults is one sachet every 4-6 hours as needed. Do not exceed 4 sachets in 24 hours. Dissolve the contents of one sachet in a glass of water and drink immediately. Do not take more than the recommended dose.
Benefits Compared to Analogues
Amicitron Plus offers effective pain relief and fever reduction similar to other analgesics but with a lower risk of gastrointestinal side effects commonly associated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

Clinical Evidence and Proven Effectiveness
Paracetamol, the active ingredient in Amicitron Plus, has been extensively studied and proven effective in pain relief and fever reduction. Clinical trials have consistently demonstrated its safety and efficacy in various patient populations.
One study published in the British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology compared paracetamol to ibuprofen in reducing fever in children with acute respiratory infections and found paracetamol to be equally effective.
Additional Information
