An assessment was made of all deaths during 4 years attributed to Distalgesic (paracetamol 325 mg and dextropropoxyphene 32.5 mg), reported either to the Birmingham Coroner (thirty-five), or from elsewhere in the West Midlands (ninety-seven), when analysis was done by the West Midlands Home Office Forensic Science Laboratory. In this region Distalgesic has become the foremost cause of death by drug overdose. About fifteen tablets may be fatal. Potentiation by alcohol is confirmed. The danger of rapid death, before treatment is available, following impulsive overdose by young people, who seem to be particularly at risk, is emphasized.
西米德兰兹郡内政部法医科学实验室对4年间归因于痛力克（对乙酰氨基酚325毫克和右丙氧芬32.5毫克）的所有死亡案例进行了评估，这些案例要么报告给了伯明翰验尸官（35例），要么来自西米德兰兹郡其他地区（97例）。在该地区，痛力克已成为药物过量致死的首要原因。大约15片可能会致命。酒精增强作用得到证实。强调了年轻人冲动过量服药后，在无法获得治疗之前迅速死亡的危险，而年轻人似乎特别容易受到这种风险的影响。
