Sinus Troubles, Cold, Fever. Taking Paracetamol, Feeling High. Safe To Take?

Hi Doctor, I have sinus trouble, and caught cold 2 days back. I took paracetamol tablet (Dolo 650) prescribed by a doc at work place, since i was running slight fever yesterday. I took one again this morning, and was feeling totally high on it. My friend said you cannot get high on paracetamol. I am concerned if i should continue the medication. Please advice. Thanks

Hello
Continue taking paracetamol for your fever whenever required.
Take steam inhalation twice a day.
Drink hot liquids and avoid cold drinks.
Put nasal drops,if nose is blocked.
You should be alright in next 7 to 10 days.
Thanks
