• Paracetamol is a drug with analgesic, antipyretic and moderate anti-inflammatory properties.

Citramon's use during pregnancy

Citramon is contraindicated in the first and third trimester of pregnancy. Acetylsalicylic acid, which is part of it, has a teratogenic effect, which can lead to the development of congenital fetal anomalies. Taking Citramon in the third trimester promotes premature closure of the aortic duct and increases the risk of bleeding during labor.

The drug can be used only in cases where the expected benefit from the treatment significantly outweighs the potential risk of impact on fetal development.

When taken together with Methotrexate and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, the risk of side effects increases dramatically. According to the instructions, Citramon should not be prescribed simultaneously with antiepileptic drugs, Rifampicin and barbiturates, because in this case, the formation of hepatotoxic metabolites occurs in large quantities.
