About Syndol Tablets Side Effects

Syndol is a prescription medication commonly used in the United Kingdom for the relief of pain and the reduction of fevers. Despite its effectiveness, Syndol is not for everyone as it presents risks for side effects in some patients.

Significance

Though many of the side effects caused by Syndol are not serious in nature, you should discuss them with your doctor if they worry you or interfere with your daily life.

Types of Common Side Effects

Common side effects of Syndol include drowsiness, dizziness, constipation, nausea, vomiting, sweating, flushed skin, blurred vision, dry mouth, headaches and loss of appetite.

Risks

Some patients experience palpitations, drops in blood pressure and decreases in heart rate. Infrequently, use of Syndol results in a serious condition known as respiratory depression which interferes with your brain's control of breathing, causing shortness of breath.

Warnings

If you take too much Syndol or use the drug too frequently, you may cause irreversible damage to your liver or kidneys. Liver effects from Syndol are most common in people who regularly abuse alcohol.

Considerations

Since it has the potential to cause dizziness and drowsiness, you should not operate a motor vehicle or heavy machinery until you know how Syndol will affect you. It is possible to develop a physical dependence upon Syndol in some cases.
