Paramig Fast Junior is used for the symptomatic treatment of mild to moderate pain and fever.

One sachet contains 250 mg of paracetamol (Paracetamolum).

Excipients with known effect: aspartame (E 951), sucrose, sodium, glucose (maltodextrin component). One sachet contains 11.81 mg of aspartame (E 951), 57.5 mg of sodium, 20.25 mg of glycerol (E 422), 0.64 mg of sucrose.

Doses used in children depend on age and body weight. A single dose is 10 mg/kg bw every 4 hours or 15 mg/kg bw every 6 hours. The maximum daily dose is 60 mg/kg bw. The interval between individual doses should not be shorter than 4 hours.

Do not use Paramig Fast Junior for more than three days without consulting a doctor.

Method of administration

Oral administration. The granules should be taken directly into the mouth (on the tongue) and swallowed without water. The granules dissolve immediately in the mouth, and the slight effervescent effect of the medicinal product causes increased salivation, which makes swallowing easier. Do not take Paramig Fast Junior after a meal.

Special patient groups

Patients with renal impairment

In patients with renal impairment the dose should be reduced and the minimum interval between doses should be as follows:

• CrCI ≥ 50 ml/min – interval between doses: 4 hours
• CrCI 10-50 ml/min – interval between doses: 6 hours
• CrCI < 10 ml/min – interval between doses: 8 hours

Patients with liver dysfunction

In patients with hepatic impairment the dose should be reduced or the intervals between doses should be extended.

In the following situations the maximum daily dose should not exceed 60 mg/kg bw/day (should not exceed 2 g/day):

• in adults weighing less than 50 kg,
• chronic or compensated active liver disease, especially mild to moderate hepatic failure, Gilbert’s syndrome (familial non-hemolytic hyperbilirubinemia),
• chronic alcoholism,
• long-term malnutrition (low glutathione reserves in the liver),
• dehydration.

Chronic alcoholism

Chronic alcohol consumption may lower the toxicity threshold of paracetamol. In these patients, the time interval between two doses should be at least 8 hours. The dose of paracetamol should not exceed 2 g per day.

Do not use in children under 4 years of age or weighing less than 17 kg. Other paracetamol products in other forms and strengths are available for this group of children.
