Call your doctor: Treatment of Tylenol (acetaminophen) overdose depends not only on the level, but on how soon after taking the Tylenol (acetaminophen) you received treatment. The major concern is the development of liver disease while headaches are not a common complaint at this point, because of the severity, you should contact your physician today

Withdrawl headache.: Percocet also has Acetaminophen. There are other ways to treat Headache than just Tylenol (acetaminophen) and Percocet. Your Neurologist can help you. Drink plenty of water, meditate, Biofeedback, Namenda/Topamax Triptans are some of the alternatives for certain types of headache. Treating Stress and sometimes Botox Injection helps.

Tylenol (acetaminophen) OD?: Hi. Tylenol (acetaminophen) overdose can cause irreversible damage to the liver and be fatal, and furthermore, time to treatment is vitally important. Since I don't know what you mean by "Tylenol (acetaminophen) overdose" (how much or when you took it), and the ER treated you with charcoal, maybe they're on top of it. I don't know what "Valtin" is; standard treatment is 2-mercaptoethanol or N-acetylcysteine. Stay on top of this.
