[pkshl]

ive been having headache since sat, dare not take panadol but until today still having headache, so wondering can i take panadol?

 

[diymummy]

Yes. Can. Take the normal one. Don't take Panadol Extra/Active/Cold or any other variation.

yes normal panadol can take EXCEPT panadol flu, extra.. but not more than 8 tab per 24hrs. i used to take panadol pretty often when i was preg, cos i cant stand the headache i had and m,y gynae told me to take those normal panadol. =)

Dear mummies, it is best not to take panadol at all since u r preg, and......after all....panadol is synthetic drugs...not natural at all.

i agree that when one is preg, shd try to avoid medication. but if she is really in pain, also no choice. and since paracetamol/panadol is the 'safest' pain killer for preggies =)
