Paracetamol problems?

Does anyone find that paracetamol makes their IBS and/or diverticulosis worse?

If I take two tablets A DAY I am alright. Any more and I feel more pain and a sort of trapped wind feeling, mostly on the left and middle.

Does anyone else experience this? Thanks

I’m new to this forum. I would be interested in what other people say. I’ve been having to take 4 doses of paracetamol a day for months now, because of osteoarthritis, and my IBS is the worst it has ever been.

Thanks for your reply. I’m taking it for osteo arthritis too. I’m having to save my dose for bedtime. My pain is mild at the moment though.
