It's long been known that overdoses of paracetamol is toxic, but that otherwise this is a very safe drug. However, there's a dark side to it as this study found out.
A medical study has highlighted the dangers of taking paracetamol regularly which has since prompted experts to send a warning to Brits.
It was assumed that - until fairly recently - paracetamol was a completely safe drug to use in patients with high blood pressure.
However, it has now been revealed that some people who take paracetamol regularly could have a heightened risk of certain deadly diseases.
A 2022 study found the effect on blood pressure is similar to that of non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen.
