A member asked:
Is it possible for me to overdose on acetaminophen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Absolutely: This drug can be very dangerous if you take more than 4 grams in a day. Man OTC medicines contain it, so you may not know you're taking it-read the label! It can cause liver failure and is the main reason liver transplant in the US today. No joke-be careful.
