OTC labeling: When used for self-medication, do not use with other products containing acetaminophen or if you are allergic to acetaminophen, caffeine, pyrilamine, or any component of the formulation.
Concerns related to adverse effects:
• CNS depression: May cause CNS depression, which may impair physical or mental abilities; patients must be cautioned about performing tasks that require mental alertness (eg, operating machinery or driving).
• Hepatotoxicity: Acetaminophen has been associated with severe liver damage. Hepatotoxicity is usually associated with excessive intake and often involves more than one product that contains acetaminophen. Limit acetaminophen dose from all sources (prescription and OTC) to ≤4 g/day and avoid or limit ethanol to <3 drinks per day.
• Hypersensitivity reactions: Allergic reactions have been reported with acetaminophen; discontinue immediately if symptoms of allergic or hypersensitivity reactions occur.
• Skin reactions: Rarely, acetaminophen may cause serious and potentially fatal skin reactions such as acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis, Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). Discontinue treatment if severe skin reactions develop (FDA 2013).
Disease-related concerns:
• Ethanol use: Use with caution with concomitant alcohol use; consuming ≥3 alcoholic drinks/day may increase the risk of liver damage.
• Hepatic impairment: Use with caution in patients with hepatic impairment.
Special populations:
• Pediatric: May cause excitability, especially in children.
Dosage form specific issues:
• Caffeine: Contains an amount of caffeine similar to 1 cup of coffee; limit the use of other caffeine-containing beverages or foods.
Other warnings/precautions:
• Dosage limit: Limit acetaminophen dose from all sources (prescription, OTC, combination products) and all routes of administration (IV, oral, rectal) to <4 g/day (adults).
• Self-medication (OTC use): When used for self-medication, notify health care provider prior to use if you have glaucoma, liver disease, difficultly in urination due to enlargement of the prostate gland, emphysema, chronic bronchitis, or are taking blood thinners, sedatives, or tranquilizers. Discontinue use and contact health care provider if new symptoms occur, redness or swelling is present, for pain that gets worse or lasts >10 days, or for fever that gets worse or lasts >3 days.

Menstrual symptoms: Temporary relief of symptoms associated with menstrual symptoms (eg, cramps, headache, bloating, backache, water-weight gain, muscle aches, and/or fatigue).
Beers Criteria: First-generation antihistamines (pyrilamine), are identified in the Beers Criteria as potentially inappropriate medications to be avoided in patients 65 years and older (independent of diagnosis or condition) due to their potent anticholinergic properties resulting in increased risk of confusion, dry mouth, constipation, and other anticholinergic effects or toxicity; use should also be avoided due to reduced clearance with advanced age and tolerance associated with use as a hypnotic. Exposure to concurrent anticholinergic drugs also increases risk of falls, delirium, and dementia; consider total anticholinergic burden when conducting medication reviews (Beers Criteria [AGS 2023]).
Duplicate therapy issues: This product contains acetaminophen, which may be a component of other combination products. Do not exceed the maximum recommended daily dose of acetaminophen.
Refer to individual components.
