Overdose: Acetaminophen or paracetamol has a max dose per 24hrs of 4g or (4000mg) In the US this has been decreased to 3000mg. You could end up with liver failure and toxication resulting in possible death. If this has happened to you, see Emergency Room treatment immediately for general labs and management.
