The aim of this researchwas to determine the relation between paracetamol used during pregnancy and preeclampsia inRS X Yogyakarta. The research was an analytical epidemiology with case control study design.Data were obtained from medical record and interview. Sample size was 137 maternal patients inOctober-December 2013 and 72 maternal have been followed up. Data were analyzed usingdescriptive statistics, Chi-square tests, and logistic regression. Preeclampsia patients weretaking paracetamol during pregnancy (71.8%), aged 30-40 years (84.6%), and hadpreeclampsia family history (28.2) than non preeclampsia patient. Chi-square test showed therelation between paracetamol used (p=0.010, OR= 3.46 (95%CI= 1.30 9.22), dose a day(p=0.010, OR= 3.18 (95%CI= 1.12 9.06), duration of paracetamol used (p=0.005, OR= 7.75(95%CI= 1.60 37.53), and used within first trimester (p=0.878, OR= 0.91 (95%CI= 0.26 3.12) to preeclampsia.
