How can this medicine affect other medicines?

Cholestyramine may reduce the absorption of paracetamol from the gut. Metoclopramide and domperidone may increase the absorption of paracetamol from the gut. Long-term or regular use of paracetamol may increase the anti-blood-clotting effect of warfarin and other anticoagulant medicines, leading to an increased risk of bleeding.
