    Chronic use of paracetamol can cause kidney problems.OP has mentioned it as penadol because in sri lanka nobody calls paracetamol by its original name,they call it penadol.So there is no need to make a fuss about the name.

    well i think this is a health issue and panadol or paracetamol is a drug that has been misused by our people a lot. i mean,, do you have to take a panadol every time you get a little pain.. i dont know about old people but i dont think that young ones should consume medicines at all.. what could possible harm a young body.. the immune system possibly can handle most of the deceases by itself. but the problem is many have not managed to protect their bodies. cough , cold,fever, muscle pains these arn't sicknesses these are just natural things you come across in you life.

    like most people has lost their proper eyesight, and other abilities usually we get from our early childhood like swimming, this might be a reason why we will all lose our power of immunity and will depend on drugs forever. i think you should move this to the pro section. rep+

    yes but im not sure whether its legal to give away drugs like that without a prescription of a medical officer.Its a really strong drug.

    Nowadays giving a prescription for panadol is like giving a fish a bath !!
    i'v seen many doctors too prescribe panadol for weeks for kids if they go to him with nothing serious y'know ,.
    my bro was mistakenly diagnosed to have meningitis when he was a kid and panadol was never missed in the prescriptions .. mum never gave him any though!!
