Has it got caffeine in it?

Some use caffeine because it ensures faster & more efficient delivery of the paracetamol.

If it has, switch to one that doesn't because caffeine in concentrated doses will give you the shakes, make you restless and bring on the anxiety in people who are already having these issues.

I guess it could do, but I don't know how much caffeine would be required from coffee as compared to the measure dosages in tablets. I guess you could try it and if it doesn't happen, you know what it was so you can avoid it in the future.

I know from reading certain anti depressant instructions that they say to avoid higher levels of caffeine such as Guarana.

Water will help as it will flush things through.

If it's caffeine, I doubt it will last long.

Hmmmm .... makes me think about whether unrecognized caffeine sensitivity is behind a lot of the panic attacks and anxiety episodes experienced by many on this site ... I have met a few people who cannot tolerate it at all, who say they won't sleep for days, shake like a leaf and have heart palpitations and all. ...
