What do you do when you have a headache? Swallow a paracetemol with a cup of coffee/tea right? Not many of us know that this could have a fatal effect. According to the new findings, paracetamol reacts with the caffeine causing liver damage.
It is a known fact that overdoses of paracetamol causes liver damage; take it with coffee and it could prove deadly! When you take paracetamol with coffee, a toxic enzyme is created when the drug is broken down by the liver and it could turn out to be even more deadly if you consume alcohol.
The bottom line is that you don’t have to stop taking paracetamol or caffeine products, but you do need to monitor your intake more carefully when taking them together, especially if you drink alcohol.
Paracetemol is known to cut the risk of ovarian cancer when women took the drug regularly, however the long-term use of paracetamol increases the risk of kidney and liver failure and makes people more vulnerable to high blood pressure and strokes.
If at all you have to take parcetemol, be careful not to take it with coffee or alcohol. Afterall, parcetemol should kill the pain, not you!
Being a nurse it make you look stupid to make such comments, most of the drugs are first tested on rats before it is given to humans because of the basic fact that the DNA of rats are very much similar to humans, please refresh your general knowledge!
It was a general information for the people who are not aware of this and not to spread any false rumors.
This study was done on rats and the crucial word is COULD cause liver damage! I.E. they (whoever they are) don't know if it will really cause a problem in humans.
If you are drinking that much coffee and taking that much paracetamol then it's best to go and see a psychiatrist as there's probably something wrong with your brain.
Don't put scaremongering posts...it only serves to make you look stupid.
