Brief Answer:
Panadol use

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking in hcm.

Panadol contains paracetamol.
It can be used as analgesic for pain management.
But it can cause gastritis and acidity.
So better to use rabeprazole with it.
If still not getting paid relief then better to take tab aceclofenac.

Hope my answer helped you.
Take care.

I wish you good and healthy life.
