What Duet is and what it is used for:

Duet (Paracetamol) is a fast and powerful analgesic with marked antipyretic property. It is recommended for the treatment of most painful and febrile conditions, such as headache, toothache, backache, rheumatic and muscle pains, dysmenorrhoea, sore throat, and for relieving the fever, aches and pains of colds and flu.

Before you take Duet:

Care is advised in the administration of Duet to patients with renal or hepatic impairment. The hazard of overdose is greater in those with non-cirrhotic alcoholic liver disease. Excessive intake of caffeine (e.g. coffee, tea and some canned drinks) should be avoided while taking this product.

How to take Duet:

Use Duet as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicinefor exact dosing instructions

Possible side effects:

Side effects of paracetamol are usually mild, though haematological reactions including thrombocytopenia, leucopenia, pancytopenia, neutropenia, and agranulocytosis have been reported. Pancreatitis, skin rashes, and other allergic reactions occur occasionally. When the recommended paracetamol-caffeine dosing regimen is combined with dietary caffeine intake, the resulting higher dose of caffeine may increase the potential for caffeine-related adverse effects such as insomnia, restlessness, anxiety, irritability, headaches, gastrointestinal disturbances and palpitations.

How to store Duet:

Store in a cool and dry place, away from light. Keep out of the reach and sight of children.
