Hi

If you took it as pain killers, your temperature will drop. And will have cold feet.
Do you agree?
I am experiencing it at the moment.


I got a gum ache. So took 1 tablet Panadol optizorb (500mg). Temperature dropped to 35.6. Which is quite low and become dangerous if below 35.
37 is normal.

As a result, I felt uneasy. Cold feet. Sweating. Fast heart beating
And when I took a different pain killer, Mefenamic (250mg). It's all fine.

Then took 1 tablet of regular Panadol (500mg), similar sensation to Panadol optizorb.

Opinions? Thank you.

Your thermometer is the one being funny here, not panadol. I bet you are using those scanning ones. Panadol only blocks the body and brain's response that make your body temp rise, i.e. fever causing ones. It will not cause you to go below normal body temp. As to why you are feeling like that, it is possible that the Panadol you are taking has caffeine in it, which will cause those effects

got gumache, go gargle Chlorhexidine

why take panadol?

Swollen gum

Even my jaw hurts

I gargle Hexipro.

Beazyme tablet helps.
