People have been warned about a potential strange side effect after taking paracetamol.
According to scientists, the pain killer could be altering your perception of risk. The warming follows research from a team of scientists at Ohio State University in the United States, where it was found that people could be putting themselves at risk after taking the common, off-the-shelf medication.
The study, published in the journal Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience, compared the risk taking rate of those who took paracetamol compared to those given a placebo. And the results suggest that those who have taken the drug simply don't feel as scared afterwards, repots Birmingham Live.
