A member asked:
If you take 12 500mg extra strength tylenol, (acetaminophen) what treatment would they do? would they do a gastric lavage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: if the ingestion was within 4-6 hours, yes yo lavage. Otherwise, blood tests, measure levels, get liver function tests, consider IV treatment
