Clinical update on benefit versus risks of oral paracetamol alone or with codeine: still a good option?

CONCLUSION: Due to its safety and tolerability profile paracetamol remained a first-line treatment in many international guidelines. Alone and with codeine it is a safe and effective option in adults, whilst NSAIDs are obviously less safe as alternatives, given the risk of potentially fatal GI and CV adverse effects.
