Paranorm Tablet is used to treat signs of migraine such as headache, being sick (vomiting), and feeling sick (nausea). Migraine is a neurological condition which is characterised by an intense pulsating, throbbing, pounding, debilitating headache which generally occurs on one side of the head; however, it can occur on both sides or shift.

Paranorm Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Metoclopramide (anti-emetics) and Paracetamol (analgesics). Metoclopramide works on the part of the brain and prevents the symptoms of nausea and vomiting. It also works on the muscles in the upper part of the digestive system, which helps empty the stomach. Paracetamol works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger known as prostaglandins, which cause pain. Together, Paranorm Tablet helps relieve the symptoms of migraine.
