Common side effects may include nausea, upset stomach, and allergic reactions such as skin rash. These side effects are usually mild and temporary.

In rare cases, serious side effects such as liver damage may occur. Seek medical attention immediately if you experience any signs of liver problems, such as yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine, or persistent stomach pain.

Drug Interactions

Mol Plus may interact with certain medications, including other medications that contain Paracetamol. Inform your healthcare professional about all the medications you are currently taking, including prescription, over-the-counter, and herbal products.

Combining Mol Plus with certain medications, such as certain blood thinners or medications that affect liver function, may increase the risk of side effects or affect the effectiveness of the medications. Your healthcare professional will be able to advise you on any potential drug interactions.
