Avoid concurrent use with alcohol, as diphenhydramine may increase the sedative effects of alcohol. Therefore, alcohol should be avoided (see Interactions).
Medical advice should be sought before taking in patients with:
- Hepatic or renal impairment. Underlying liver disease increases the risk of paracetamol-related liver damage

- Patients with epilepsy or seizure disorders, myasthenia gravis, narrow-angle glaucoma, prostatic hypertrophy, urinary retention, asthma, bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), hepatic impairment and mild to moderate renal impairment.
