Hi,
Thank you for using Healthcare Magic.
There will be no problem with taking an expired Panadol. You are not in ant danger. You do not need to do anything except dispose of the rest of the bottle so you don't make the same mistake again.
Hope this has reassured you. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
