Pharmaceutical composition containing paracetamol, treatment pack comprising said composition and method of reducing liver toxicity effect of paracetamol compositions

摘要

The acute liver toxicity effects of paracetamol are reduced by co-formulating with sustained release ascorbic acid which produces high liver concentrations of ascorbate anion after oral administration of the co-formulation. A suitable form of sustained release ascorbic acid is prepared by microencapsulation of particles of ascorbic acid in membranes which act as microdialysis cells.
