Application and dosage
Thomapyrin® can be taken by adults and adolescents from 12 years of age for the treatment of mild acute pain to moderately severe pain, e.g. headache and toothache, fever (for pain and fever treatment). Thomapyrin® should not be taken for more than 3-4 days, unless otherwise directed by the treating physician. Up to 6 tablets of Thomapyrin® can be taken during the day.
This daily maximum dose is based on the maximum doses for the active ingredients contained in the tablet. No more than 1500mg of ASA should be taken daily, no more than 1000mg of paracetamol daily and no more than 300mg of caffeine daily. 1-2 tablets can be taken every 4-8 hours. When taking it, please note that in addition to the dosed Thomapyrin® as described above, “Thomapyrin® intensive” is also available on the market. This is in a higher dosage.Accordingly, the number of tablets must be reduced to achieve the desired dose.
Side effects
When taking Thomapyrin®, a wide variety of side effects can occur in almost all organ systems in the human body. It is important to ensure that, in addition to the dosage level, individual factors of the user also play a role, e.g. the enzymatic degradation of the active ingredients. In addition, a distinction can be made between the triggers of the side effects, namely the individual active ingredients contained in the product: ASA, paracetamol and caffeine.
The probability of occurrence of the side effects classifies the classification into very frequent, frequent, occasional, rare and very rare. Common side effects when taking Thomapyrin® are Occasionally it can also come to:. Rarely do users report about: Side effects that are known to occur when taking ASA are Rarely also report about:: Paracetamol can cause changes in the blood count, i.e. a change in the composition of the blood from the blood cells and components it contains.
Furthermore, allergic reactions on the skin and in the respiratory tract can also occur. The damaging effect on the liver can be problematic when using paracetamol: If paracetamol is overdosed, the liver enzymes are no longer sufficient to completely break down the paracetamol. Therefore, other degradation pathways are used to produce intermediate products toxic to the liver.
In case of an overdose, acetylcysteine (ACC) can be added. This has methyl groups, which can be used to break down the paracetamol into non-toxic products.
