Life sucks when you find out you’re suddenly allergic to TWO brands of panadol.
Case 1:
Diagnosis: Took panadol on Tuesday afternoon. Allergic reaction 1hour later. Eyes swelling. YAAGHHHH!
Remedy: Anti-histamine consumed. +1 to resistance on all elemental damage.
Case 2:
Diagnosis: Took DIFFERENT brand of panadol an hour ago. No allergic reaction. 20minutes ago, left knee started swelling. OH SHI-!
Remedy: Anti-histamine consumed. -1 to agility, +1 to constitution.
Prognosis: Further rest at home. Have been stuck at home since Tuesday. Must… get… well… soon…!
PS – First time i’ve ever seen a doctor AND a pharmacologist stumped because of my allergic reaction to panadol/paracetamol. Damn… how’s that for a basketcase!?

Get well soon
Wow… *pats* these things happen >_< get some rest!
As for me, I get allergic reactions whenever I ate something full of chilli, or anything overspicy. You can imagine how difficult it is to sit down properly with a huge swelling right below your goatse.
Hangmen>> No curry for you mein freud.
Cholic & Reno>> Thanks! Still got a slight fever, hopefully it’ll break by tomorrow.
Allergic reaction sucks, man. About two week ago I had a bad case of allergic reaction to diclofenac sodium which turns my eyes into something like from Ultraman, I went to a nearby clinic and got injected on my butt.
have the same thing with Panadol, but not Panadol Rapid! (both 500mg paracetamol)
also bad: aspro, neurophen, etc. even some anti-histamines!
Pretty sure its the caking agent in the pill, might be a talc alergy.
IIRC… panadol is 60% corn starch. But i could be mistaken.
