Experts warn that paracetamol poisoning tends to increase because this drug is considered safe and patients can buy it without a physician's prescription.
The cause of poisoning is mainly due to overdose use. Symptoms of poisoning manifest: loss of appetite, nausea, sweating, discomfort, possible pain in the right flank. In severe cases, patients may die from multiple organ failure (kidney, liver).
