When trying to take a paracetamol it fell on dirty floor. took it but now afraid i might get sick.what should i do? what symptoms to look for :(:( :(

No worries: It would be highly unusual to get sick from "dirty" pill from the floor. Obviously, u shouldn't eat dirt or clearly dirty things. Unless u are in environment where highly virulent organisms are present, u should be fine. Good luck
